Patient's question:
Baby is 17 weeks old, I don't know what the situation will be. Later, I learned that she/he was sick. Please ask: How should diarrhea in babies be treated appropriately?Doctor's answer:
If the baby, apart from having more frequent bowel movements, still sleeps well, has a normal appetite, and is gaining weight, it can be considered physiological diarrhea and does not require treatment. If the baby is in significant distress, with loose and foul-smelling stools, it is recommended that you take the baby to the hospital for a check-up. You can also give the baby plenty of rice water or juice to prevent dehydration. Do not feel any psychological pressure and maintain a cheerful mood. During this time, pay attention to getting more rest, and maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This will be beneficial for both you and the baby in your womb.
