Patient's question:
The baby has diarrhea about ten to twelve times a day and frequently has green stools. As a parent, I am very worried, fearing that the child's condition will worsen. Regarding the issue I just mentioned, I hope the doctor can answer.Doctor's answer:
Check the routine stool test for inflammation, and provide some digestive aids. It's time to add supplementary foods now, such as vegetable soup and soft porridge. Weaning should be done between 9-10 months. Weight should be calculated as birth weight (kg) + (0.7 month). Each infant may have different bowel habits, resulting in varying daily bowel movements. Clinically, it is normal for babies under 6 months to have 6-7 bowel movements per day, and for babies aged 6-12 months to have about 2-3 bowel movements per day. If you're not sure, it's best to have a check-up at the hospital.
