In the daily care of infants, it can be found that the physical condition of infants can be determined by their stool status. Novice mothers, due to their lack of experience, do not have a good understanding of the characteristics of their baby's stool, and when they notice some changes in their stool, they tend to have wild thoughts; So, is it normal for a baby's stool to have brown streaks?
If there are not many brown threads in the baby's stool and no obvious large amount of blood stains are found, it is generally not a problem. It is possible that the iron in the milk powder is not fully absorbed, and the gastrointestinal tract is not fully absorbed, leaving the rest excreted from the body. Since the iron content in the milk powder is not particularly high, the shape is filamentous.
If there are many brown threads in a baby's stool that persist for several consecutive days, it is important to check the shape of the baby's stool. If the stool is dry, it may be due to the baby's internal heat causing constipation. At this time, it is important to drink plenty of water for the baby, and expectant mothers should have a light diet. If a baby's stool is particularly loose and frequent, it is important to consider whether the baby has enteritis and seek medical attention promptly.
The situation of infants is not exactly the same, and the reasons that cause brown streaks in their stool are also different. Different methods are used for different situations. However, novice mothers should pay attention to feeding their babies with small meals, appropriate water intake, avoiding excessive internal heat, and allowing their babies to supplement with vitamins and dietary fiber. The diet should be light. Pay attention to hygiene and clean the baby's buttocks after use.
