Patient's question:
The baby is now 20 months old. Due to poor breast milk, it is mainly artificially fed. After 100 days, the feeding was changed from pure formula to food-based with formula as a supplement. The baby eats a lot of fruits and vegetables, but has had severe constipation. Please provide guidance and suggestions. Thank you!!Doctor's answer:
My child is just three months old, and he also has a bowel movement every two or three days. The doctor at the hospital said it's constipation, which is due to poor digestion, and prescribed medication. I suggest you take your child to the hospital for a check-up to find out the specific cause of the constipation. Long-term constipation is not good for a child's health. If waste cannot be eliminated from the body, the child is more prone to getting sick. Give your child more fruits and vegetables. I wish your baby grows up healthy, happy, and joyful. A mother's heart's wish.
