Patient's question:
The baby is 28 weeks old and doesn't know why it suddenly got sick. It also feels uncomfortable. Please ask: How should infant constipation be treated for a better and faster recovery?Doctor's answer:
Infant constipation is a very common phenomenon, most of which is related to stomach upset, poor digestion, etc. Generally, formula-fed children are more prone to "overheating" and need to drink more water, eat small meals more frequently, and avoid overeating at once. If breastfeeding, the mother should pay attention to eating light foods, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and consuming more vegetables and fruits. It is also appropriate to gently massage the baby's abdomen to help stimulate intestinal movement and develop a habit of regular bowel movements. Do not have any psychological pressure, maintain a cheerful mood, and pay attention to getting more rest during this period. At the same time, maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which is beneficial for both you and the fetus in your womb.
