Patient's question:
My baby has been three months old and breastfeeding. The baby has always had more than five bowel movements per day, especially in the afternoon when the stool is runny. Each time the baby has a bowel movement, it contains curds. The baby usually sleeps deeply for an hour at a time and always prefers to be held while sleeping; if placed down, they wake up immediately. What could be the reason for the above situation?Doctor's answer:

If nausea and vomiting are significant, Montmorillonite powder can be taken orally to treat diarrhea.
