What should I do if a newborn has a lot of bowel movements in a day?

Patient's question:

Newborn, 41 days ago didn't urinate for two days, urinated many times yesterday, the first two times were a lot, and the later ones were like nausea and vomiting. Is it nausea and vomiting? What should I eat? Maintenance and repair for a few times.

Doctor's answer:

The baby may have poor digestion, and currently has loose stools. Keep the abdomen warm. If breastfeeding, the adult should pay attention to their diet, avoiding extremely cold and harsh foods. Probiotics can be added, and Montmorillonite can be used to stabilize the stool. Wash the buttocks with warm water, and check a few stool tests. After each urination and defecation, clean and dry the baby, and apply erythromycin eye drops or diaper cream. This advice is for the question "Newborn, 41 days ago didn't urinate for one day, yesterday urinated many times, the first two times." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
