Patient's question:
The baby has had abnormal bowel movements for the whole of February, with bowel movements occurring every three or four days, starting dry and then becoming loose. Breastfeeding is normal, and the baby has been exclusively breastfed.Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Small soaps were used, but no specific help was provided.
What help is needed: Hello, what is the matter?
Doctor's answer:
The baby's condition may be related to breastfeeding to some extent, or it could be caused by slow intestinal motility.Suggested advice: I recommend you buy some Huadouzi (soybeans fermented with mold) from a traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy. This is a traditional Chinese medicine that aids digestion, promotes gastrointestinal health, and can also treat constipation. After buying it, you can boil it in water and give it to the child to drink. Huadouzi soup has a pleasant aroma and a delicious taste. Generally, it takes effect the next day after consumption, so you can try it for your child.
The mother should maintain a light diet and eat easily digestible foods.
The above advice is for the question "Baby has irregular bowel movements, defecating only every three or four days." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
