I'm worried about my 4-month-old baby's feet and hands. They're often wet and sweaty, especially when he's sleeping or feeding. It's more than what seems normal to us. Is this something to be concerned about, or is it normal for babies this age?

Question

My child threw up four times after having lunch. I think the food might've been a bit too spicy. I gave him 2.5 ml of Emset. He's sleeping now, but should I wake him up to give him some fluids?
