Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop recently. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please tell me why the baby hasn't had a bowel movement for four days?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on your description, this may be related to relatively dry stools, which is associated with the baby's own intestinal function. The main factor is likely the addition of complementary foods. When adding complementary foods, it's important to pay attention to pairing, such as using fruit puree and egg yolk together. Additionally, after eating complementary foods, you can give the baby some water to supplement moisture or use a "clearing heat" supplement. Currently, it is recommended to increase the amount of fruit puree and reduce the amount of egg yolk gradually. Don't hurry! Observe whether the baby adapts to the egg yolk after consumption. If there are no adverse reactions, you can give two servings. If there is any discomfort, reduce the amount appropriately! You can add bananas, apple puree, fresh juice, rice porridge, and others!
