Patient's question:
Yesterday at 9 a.m., she ate once, and it wasn't until 10 a.m. today that she ate again. In the 12 hours in between, she didn't eat anything but was given water to drink. Will drinking too much water affect her formula feeding?Doctor's answer:
Drinking a lot of water will occupy the already limited stomach capacity of children, which will inevitably further exacerbate their refusal to eat. There are many reasons why a 4-month-old child refuses to eat, but since your child can still drink water despite refusing to eat, the main consideration should be whether it is caused by poor gastrointestinal function. Additionally, if the child has a cold, it may also lead to poor appetite. It is recommended to use many probiotics, such as probiotics, which can adjust the intestinal flora and improve the child's appetite. If the effect is still not good, it is recommended to add Xingspi Yang'er Granules, which has a good therapeutic effect on children's refusal to eat.
