Patient's question:
My baby is 24 days old and has been having curd-like stools (the stool is very loose, with things like chili seeds inside) for a while. They have bowel movements 4 to 5 times a day, sometimes a little more in quantity, and sometimes very little. Is this normal? I heard some babies only have bowel movements every two or three days.Doctor's answer:
The child has undigested milk curds in their stool, which may be due to indigestion. The behavior during sleep is likely caused by stomach discomfort, as the saying goes, "When the stomach is not at ease, sleep is disturbed."1. Lactobacillus, lactase, and pepsin solution can be used to enhance absorption.
2. If the child is breastfed, it is recommended that the lactating mother follow a diet that is nutritious, light, and easy to digest. Avoid overly greasy foods, as well as extremely cold items such as oranges, tangerines, oranges, watermelon, grapes, and bananas.
