What should I do if my baby's stool is not good?

Patient's question:

Currently, in general: Since the baby was born in November last year, his stools have always been smelly, yellow, and sometimes with small white particles. He has been exclusively breastfed. During this check-up, his weight even decreased compared to last month?

Doctor's answer:

Pay attention to dietary adjustments. Children's diet. 1) Gradually accustom the infant to new flavors. Start by getting the child accustomed to the taste of soups, juices, etc., to pique their interest. Dilute adult soup 2-3 times and cool it to a temperature similar to body temperature. Feed it to the child before breastfeeding. Juice can be diluted with water and fed directly, or mixed with formula milk. (2) Gradually increase the quantity and variety of complementary foods for the infant. When introducing a new food, do so gradually. Start with small amounts and gradually increase the quantity. Hasty introduction can lead to failure. At 4 months of age, introduce scrambled egg yolk. Start with 1/4. After a week, if appetite and digestion are normal, increase to 1/2. Gradually increase to a full yolk thereafter.
