Doctor's answer:

Hello, your baby has loose stools, nausea, and vomiting frequently, which might be caused by indigestion or catching a cold. You can give your baby some probiotics. If you are breastfeeding, you need to pay attention to your diet, avoid greasy and fried foods, and reduce your intake of two-bag meals. You can also try applying an umbilical patch to see if it helps. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are prone to various illnesses. For parents, don't panic and should take your child to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Don't blindly give your baby medication.
