What is the reason for the yellow and rare foam in a newborn's 18 days?

Patient's question:

Newborn is 18 days old. In the past two days, they haven't had a bowel movement while breastfeeding, but after drinking formula milk, they have a bowel movement after 1 to 2 hours, which is somewhat better. They are using one entire diaper at a time, with yellow, thin stool, and there are bubbles when they have a bowel movement. They frequently pass gas.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the current condition of the baby is likely caused by a cold, leading to digestive issues. In this case, regarding the current symptoms, I suggest you first pay attention to the baby's warmth protection. At the same time, you can also give the baby appropriate probiotic preparations, such as probiotics, for symptomatic treatment and for two days to see how it goes.
