Patient's question:
My baby had a bowel movement every two or three days from the first month after birth, and then every four or five days in the second month. Sometimes, even after four or five days, he still didn't have a bowel movement. The gas he passed was particularly foul, and his stools were not dry. I give him an extra bottle of formula every night. Previously, a doctor suggested using some glycerin suppositories, but should I still use them?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is believed that if the baby uses it for a long time, you can use some glycerin suppositories or soap sticks. The diet must be strictly implemented according to the instructions on the milk powder package to prevent it from being too thick, which will increase the pressure on the baby's gastrointestinal tract. Drink more water, keep the indoor temperature and humidity suitable, and do not dress the baby too much. The above is advice on this issue. It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wish you a quick recovery!
