Patient's question:
In just 38 days, it's memorized in the stomach. Previously, it was always two days between bowel movements (loose stools), but today is already the fourth day, and still no bowel movement. Is this normal? Also, is there any way to solve this? Thank you!Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None
Expected help: How to make the baby have a bowel movement
Doctor's answer:
Breastfed infants, stool is yellow or golden yellow, with a uniform consistency like cream or paste, occasionally thin and slightly green, with an acidic odor but no strong smell, and is excreted two to four times a day. If the baby does not defecate for several days, it may be that the baby is simply not well-fed, so you should first ensure that the baby is well-fed every day. The baby is not yet accustomed to defecating at fixed times every day, which means she will never defecate. You need to massage the baby's abdomen every day, using your three middle fingers to massage the baby's navel in a clockwise direction for 5 minutes each time, once in the morning and once in the evening. This can help slow down the baby's intestinal peristalsis and stimulate the baby to defecate.
