Patient's question:
Baby is 21 days old. Yesterday, after a thorough check, it was discovered that it is breast milk jaundice. Breastfeeding was stopped and formula was given for a full day and night. Clear liver and gallbladder oral liquid has been administered. Since stopping breastfeeding and switching to formula, the baby hasn't had a bowel movement. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, in this case, drinking more water is usually not a major issue if the baby is only. This situation is normal because formula feeding can easily cause stomach upset, making it difficult for the stool to pass. Please pay close attention. The above advice is for the question "Baby is 21 days old, only discovered yesterday that it is breast milk jaundice after a careful check-up." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
