Does a baby who drinks breast milk have frequent bowel movements?

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-ups haven't helped. Is it normal for breastfed babies to have frequent bowel movements?

Doctor's answer:

Such issues are generally not related to feeding. It is necessary to analyze and treat the child's symptoms in combination. If it is timely, you can start adding complementary foods. It is not advisable to rely solely on breastfeeding. There are many causes of pediatric digestive diseases. If the child is diagnosed with a pediatric digestive disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in their children and maintain a balanced diet.
