Doctor's answer:

I'm happy to explain your question. Based on your simple description: Baobao is four months old and has been having difficulty with bowel movements recently, not defecating for two or three days at a time. After taking probiotics, he starts to have bowel movements. Diarrhea in infants is the most common gastrointestinal disease in infants and young children. The fundamental reason for infant diarrhea is poor immune function and weak resistance to viruses and bacteria. When the intestines are infected, it is very easy for the baby to contract diarrhea. At the same time, if the baby is overfed, it can lead to indigestion, which can also cause diarrhea in the baby. The baby should eat small meals more frequently. If necessary, you can also give the baby Pan Desheng or Heshengyuan probiotics, which have a good effect. During naps, slightly elevate the baby's head to help with breathing and allow the baby to rest well.
