  1. Mothers should first observe and record the frequency of their baby's diarrhea to see if the situation is severe compared to usual. There is a type of physiological diarrhea, which is mainly caused during breastfeeding or during the days of changing formula. As long as the mother takes good care of it, it will recover quickly. If it is pathological diarrhea, after the mothers record the data, if the baby still has symptoms such as thirst and watery stool, then it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination.

  2. At this time, it is also necessary to breastfeed the baby, but the bottle can be replaced with a spoon, otherwise the bottle can easily cause contamination and worsen the baby's diarrhea. What mothers need to do is to reduce the chance of the baby being infected. Also, take good care of your baby's stomach while sleeping and avoid catching a cold again.

  3. Due to the significant increase in bowel movements after diarrhea, mothers need to change diapers every time and not be afraid of trouble. And remember to wash your buttocks with warm water, rinse both front and back, and apply a little buttock protection ointment to prevent your baby from developing red buttocks.
