Patient's question:
For the past twenty-four days, the baby has been mixed feeding. The stool has a sour odor. In recent days, the baby doesn't sleep well during naps and also doesn't sleep well at night. When the baby does sleep, it cries sadly. What could be the reason? What should be done? Can abdominal massage be helpful?Doctor's answer:
Dear consultant, according to the situation you mentioned, a baby who is over two weeks old may have smelly stools, which could be due to poor digestion. It is recommended that you try to feed the baby more breast milk, as this may help. If the baby cries frequently, it may be due to abdominal bloating. You can do some gentle abdominal massage. Pay attention to preventing abdominal cold. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and a healthy body and a wonderful life.
