Patient's question:
Previous Treatment and Effects: The baby had a stomachache for two months and was given medicine by the hospital. Now, the baby has two bowel movements a day, with sticky, yellow stools. Sometimes the stools are loose. Is this normal? It seems the baby hasn't been eating as much milk as before. The appetite is not good.Doctor's answer:
Your condition is considered to be caused by indigestion, often resulting from irregular eating habits, overeating, etc. Since the baby's digestive system is still under development and has not yet improved, indigestion in the stomach and intestines can occur when exposed to cold or overeating. Therefore, there is no need to worry.It is recommended to pay attention to the baby's warmth to prevent exposure to cold, and to moderately control the baby's food intake while maintaining regular breastfeeding. If the stool is looser and has a strong sour odor, oral administration of Bifidumbacterium and Children's Stomach Health Tablets can be considered. Drinking more warm water is also beneficial. I hope my explanation helps you.
