The digestive function of babies will continue to improve with age, but during this period, babies may occasionally experience digestive problems, which is a problem that many parents encounter. When babies experience digestive symptoms, they should take the correct measures to deal with them. What should I do if my one and a half year old baby has poor digestion?
The baby's digestion is poor at the age of one and a half. Parents should also pay attention to adjusting the child's diet. It is suggested that children should eat some easy to digest foods such as yam Congee, rice porridge, lean meat Congee, pig liver puree, celery, apples, vegetables, carrots, tomatoes, cantaloupes, etc., to avoid high fat foods for children, and also let children chew carefully and swallow slowly to avoid overeating, and also reduce the intake of cold food.
After the child eats, massage the child's abdomen to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and alleviate symptoms of indigestion. If it is caused by a cold in the abdomen, you can also use a hot towel to apply heat to the abdomen to relieve it, which can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and improve digestive symptoms. You can also supplement with some fruit and vegetable juice to help digestion and activate the digestive system. If there is no improvement within a week, it is recommended to go to a children's hospital for examination. The child should not take the medicine that adults take and should not self medicate the child. If necessary, medication that promotes digestion and regulates gut microbiota can be taken orally under the guidance of a doctor for treatment.
