Patient's question:
My baby is almost eleven months old. Recently, she hasn't been eating well. At first, she would leave a little bit, but now she leaves more and more. Now, she only eats about half of what she used to at each meal. She also doesn't like drinking water. She eats fruits, biscuits, and things like that, but she just doesn't like drinking milk. What could be the reason? Is it possible she's weaning off milk?Doctor's answer:
The most common symptom in children is indigestion. If the baby shows it again, such as thick tongue coating, curdled milk in stool, or reduced appetite, it is necessary to pay close attention and observe carefully. Feed the baby in small amounts and multiple times, and consider oral digestive aid liquid or probiotics to regulate for about two to three days. Gradually, it will improve. If the baby doesn't want to eat, don't force it. Allow the baby's stomach to rest appropriately, so that the gastrointestinal movement can normalize.
