Patient's question:
The nine-month-old baby has been having black-green bowel movements and constipation recently. Sometimes, when they can't poop, they cry. Before this, they ate millet porridge, rice porridge, bananas, apples, oranges, and tomatoes.Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to explain this to you. In your case, it should be indigestion. Generally speaking, babies under one year old have relatively weak absorption functions. Since you have a varied diet, and the child is experiencing indigestion and constipation again, I recommend you first pause your diet, apply cold compresses and abdominal massage, and simultaneously provide probiotics or other gut-friendly active bacteria to promote bowel movements. If there's no significant improvement, please consult a local reputable pediatric clinic promptly.
