Patient's question:
After the full moon, I started having a bowel movement every 2-3 days~! A few days later, I couldn't go anymore~!Doctor's answer:
Babies often suffer from constipation due to improper diet, so when a baby is constipated, expectant mothers should not get anxious. They can try adjusting the baby's dietary habits and other methods to treat the constipation.Some infants are accustomed to having a bowel movement every 2-3 days. As long as the stool is not hard and there are no difficulties or discomfort, it is not considered constipation, and no treatment is necessary. For newborns and small infants who primarily consume milk, water, light salt water, or diluted vegetable juice should be given between feedings. Each time, 20-30 milliliters should be provided to alter the intestinal osmotic pressure and promote bowel movement.
