Patient's question:
My child has recently significantly reduced their milk intake. I'm not sure if it's due to the heat or if they've grown tired of the taste of the milk. I want to try switching to a different type of milk, but I don't know if switching is good for the child? Patient age: 3 and a half months Current general condition: There is usually green stool.Doctor's answer:
You can try changing the milk, but it's also related to the hot weather. You should give the child more water to drink. Some newborns have always had normal milk intake, but when they are two or three months old, their milk intake suddenly decreases, but their vitality and weight are normal, with no signs of illness. This is mainly because before two or three months, sucking milk is a reflex action—just give them milk, and they will drink it. However, after that, they will adjust their milk intake according to their actual body needs and appetite, so their appetite may decrease.
