Patient's question:
The baby vomited, had a bloated stomach, and diarrhea during the Chinese New Year. They spent two days at the hospital getting IV drips. The past few days, they've been very lethargic. Today, they're feeling better, but they seem very hungry and keep asking for food. The current issue is that she's not having a bowel movement and has a big stomach, but it's not due to gas. What should we do?Doctor's answer:
Hello. The baby may have been given antibiotics during the infusion a few days ago. The normal digestive flora in the intestines was also eliminated. It takes time to establish them. So. You should not let the baby eat too much right now. Drink soup before eating. You can also help the baby with abdominal massage to increase intestinal motility. Otherwise. It is easy to cause constipation. It is recommended that you give the baby more green vegetables and fresh fruits.
