What is the reason for the baby's frequent bowel movements and watery stools?

Patient's question:

My baby is now three months old. Since birth, his bowel movements have not been very good. In the later stage, taking probiotics helped a bit. However, in recent days, his bowel movements are very frequent, almost like he's pooping while eating, and the stool is very watery. Is this normal? Will my baby's stomach hurt in this situation?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, the baby's condition may be due to poor gastrointestinal development. You must pay attention to his diet and avoid indigestible foods. If the problem is caused by formula feeding, you must change the formula. If the baby is breastfed, the mother should also pay attention to her diet and avoid spicy or irritating foods. If the baby cries due to abdominal pain, you can eat some probiotic-rich foods.
