Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:Loose stools are okay, I bought the Bifidus for regulating the intestines. But recently, even for these four days, he hasn't had a bowel movement. His (spiritual state) is quite good. Is this related to taking the Bifidus? Additionally, how much Bifidus should an 8-month-old baby eat at one time? Can it be given together with baby formula, adding it to the milk? Information on previous treatment and its effects: None. What kind of assistance is needed: How can I make the baby have a bowel movement?
Doctor's answer:
Normal stool appears yellow or golden yellow, with a uniform, creamy consistency and a sweet-sour odor but no strong smell. There is no obvious mucus, occasionally with small curd-like milk particles or a slightly greenish hue. It is excreted 3-5 times a day, and some children may have 6-7 bowel movements daily, but each time the amount is not large, and the stool characteristics are good. Weight gain is normal, and the nutritional status is excellent. This is not a pathological condition and does not require any intervention.If a child normally has 1-2 bowel movements a day but suddenly has more than 5-6 movements, and the stool contains excessive moisture or undigested food residue, it is necessary to seek medical follow-up.
