Patient's question:
My little baby got autumn diarrhea at 7 months. Previously, she was always breastfed, but there was no choice but to eat rice soup and rice powder these days. The good thing is that she doesn't have any diarrhea, and her bowel movements are very good. But as soon as she eats my milk, she has egg-like diarrhea, all full of water. I tried twice, and it's the same every time. I'm so worried?! I really don't want to wean her so early.Doctor's answer:
It's due to seasonal changes, but it doesn't necessarily mean you have to stop breastfeeding. If the mother's diet is fine and the diarrhea isn't caused by breastfeeding, there's no need to stop. You can cook some apple water for the baby to drink. Add a little rock sugar while cooking. This apple water is also good for you to drink, and it's quite effective in treating diarrhea. If the baby has severe diarrhea, it's recommended to go to a formal hospital for examination and treatment to avoid dehydration after diarrhea.
