What is the reason for the baby's rare and viscous mucus in the stool when breastfeeding?

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-ups haven't helped. Could you please tell me what could be the reason for the baby's breast milk causing rare, sticky stools?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the baby's condition, it is not normal. It may be caused by catching a cold or poor digestion. It is recommended that breastfeeding mothers follow a light diet and avoid greasy, spicy, and irritating foods. If the baby has been like this for a long time, they can take Jianpi San for treatment and regulation.
Hello, the child has not had a bowel movement for six days. It may be due to issues like "" (excess heat), poor gastrointestinal motility, or consuming too much milk, leading to constipation symptoms. You can gently massage the baby's abdomen or use a glycerin suppository to help with defecation.
