Baby diarrhea is not uncommon, almost all babies have experienced diarrhea. But babies in confinement rarely experience diarrhea, otherwise it will make mothers even more worried. Especially when the baby defecates, the mother is extremely worried. What's going on with a postpartum baby pulling water?
When postpartum babies experience symptoms of diarrhea, it is often caused by viral enteritis. In the early stages of this disease, there may be symptoms of fever, followed by severe diarrhea, even jet diarrhea. The stool pulled out is watery, and in the later stages it may only be plain water. This disease can easily cause dehydration in infants, but babies in confinement cannot drink water. Therefore, mothers must take their babies to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible to avoid delaying treatment time.
Mothers should always prevent their babies from experiencing diarrhea and pay attention to feeding methods. Especially for infants who are breastfeeding, mothers must pay attention to ensuring the quality of their milk and avoid eating cold and hard foods. Do not breastfeed a baby when angry, and do not breastfeed a baby when the body is cold. Not only should attention be paid to feeding methods, but also to disinfecting the baby's belongings. Especially for items that come into direct contact with the mouth, such as bottles, strict disinfection is necessary to prevent bacteria from entering the mouth.
