Patient's question:
After the full moon, there was a recurrence of excessive spitting up and continuous crying. A few days ago, it was said that there was indigestion, so Chinese medicine was taken, but then diarrhea started, with dark green stools, lasting for 7 days. Yesterday, the medication was already stopped, and there was no more diarrhea. Up until today, it has been two days without a bowel movement. It has been...Doctor's answer:
There must be a reason for the crying. First, don't blindly guess the baby's condition. There are generally several reasons why a baby cries, apart from illness, such as hunger, thirst, being too hot, being too cold, loneliness, fatigue, discomfort, or a lack of trace elements. I believe the first thing to consider is whether the baby hasn't eaten enough. I don't know if you are breastfeeding or formula-feeding. At around 30 days old, the baby should be able to consume 80–120 ML per meal. Next, carefully observe whether the baby is too hot. Babies should not be dressed too warmly; they are sensitive to heat. Here's a simple way to tell: feel the baby's feet or the tip of their nose. If they are warm or the same temperature as your body, it's time to add more clothing. Since the baby's nerve endings are not yet fully developed, they should feel cool. If they are warm, it means the baby's body temperature is high. Additionally, if the baby is drinking a lot of fluids, offer half the amount of milk between meals. Babies may cry at night because they are thirsty. Also, pay attention to providing the baby with comprehensive nutrition to boost their immunity. Apart from formula milk, you can also try giving the baby colostrum. For example, Soul Sunshine Colostrum can promote growth and development and enhance intelligence. Wishing the baby good health.Advice: There must be a reason for the baby's crying.
