What should I do if my baby's stomach makes gurgling sounds after eating?

Patient's question:

The baby's stomach makes gurgling sounds after eating, and then they have a bowel movement. They have been using probiotic patches for several days. The doctor said today it's physiological diarrhea. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Is the child 6 years old? Physiological diarrhea is more common in babies aged 1 to 6 months. For your 6-year-old child, it is more likely caused by cold exposure or digestive issues. It is recommended to seek further medical examination for a clear diagnosis and symptomatic treatment.
If a baby aged 1 to 6 months has physiological diarrhea, it will gradually improve as complementary foods are gradually introduced. It is advised to give the child more warm water, appropriate digestive saline solution, and pay attention to preventing colds. You can also use a warm towel to apply cold compresses to the child's abdomen and gradually introduce complementary foods according to the child's age.
The above suggestions are for the issue of "babies making gurgling sounds in their stomach after eating." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
