Hello! This situation should be caused by improper diet in the baby, leading to digestive dysfunction. You can let the baby drink more water. Additionally, you can give the baby Smecta and Mimi Ai orally. Gently warming the baby's abdomen and applying Dinggui Er Qipie patches can also help. Let the baby drink more millet soup or salty flour soup to avoid dehydration.
