Patient's question:
My baby is 9 days old and has been breastfeeding since birth. Over the past two days, I've noticed that her stool has formed into very small, grainy clumps, resembling cornmeal-like pieces. What could be causing this? My wife has recently been eating chicken and pig trotters. Does this affect the quality of her breast milk?Doctor's answer:
The baby's indigestion is caused by poor digestion. Give the baby some Mamikai to regulate the intestines and aid digestion. Rub the baby's little tummy more often to promote intestinal movement. If breastfeeding, the mother should pay attention to her diet, ensuring it is light and avoiding greasy or hard-to-digest foods, as these can easily irritate the baby's stomach, causing indigestion and diarrhea. The baby's stomach discomfort is closely related to the mother's diet.
