When mothers take care of their babies, their biggest concern is that they may have physical problems, especially diarrhea. And some babies often have diarrhea, which is very inconvenient for mothers to take their babies out. If a mother has important things to take her baby out, how long can a 1-year-old baby with diarrhea recover?
A baby with diarrhea can recover for a few days, but there is not a certain amount of time. The reason is that each baby's constitution and disease resistance are different; Furthermore, the causes of diarrhea in babies vary, with different specific nursing measures and treatment methods, making it difficult to define the time for recovery. But usually, mild diarrhea will alleviate symptoms in 2-3 days, while severe diarrhea takes 1-2 weeks. In autumn, diarrhea can last for 7-10 days, and in severe cases, it can last even longer.
If a mother discovers that her baby has diarrhea and the condition is mild, she can recover her health through nursing care. To take care of a baby with diarrhea, the following points need to be done:
1. Timely replenish water
Mothers should pay attention to feeding their babies water, rice soup, and some fruit juice. It is recommended to take oral rehydration salts to prevent dehydration in babies.
2. Adjust diet in a timely manner
Babies with diarrhea need to adjust their diet. Breastfeeded babies can continue to be breastfed. If the baby is not breastfed, formula milk can also continue to be fed. But complementary foods should be stopped and added slowly after the condition improves.
3. Ensure proper disinfection and hygiene
The bottles, bowls, spoons and other utensils used by babies must be cleaned with detergent first, then rinsed with running water, and boiled or disinfected with a special disinfectant pot.
