The baby's gastrointestinal function is relatively weak, and parents often have headaches due to their baby's gastrointestinal problems. If they are not careful, they may experience diarrhea or constipation. The digestive system is not fully developed, and parents need to understand the reasons in order to prescribe the right medicine. Do not blindly give your baby medication. So, what is the reason for a baby's diarrhea?
Firstly, it is possible that the baby has ingested air while eating or nursing, causing intestinal sounds and stomach growls. This can also easily lead to diarrhea. Observe whether the baby cries at night. If crying is severe, it may also be accompanied by stomach pain, which is a sign of poor digestion. Eating probiotics can alleviate symptoms, and pay attention to diet.
Secondly, do not let your baby eat difficult to digest foods to avoid damaging the digestive system and indigestion. If your baby is too young and less than 6 months old, it is necessary to stop adding complementary foods because they cannot be eaten too early, which will cause a burden on the digestive system. Even if your baby can add complementary foods at 6 months old, it is important to gradually add staple foods when they are in good condition. In addition, breastfeeding babies will be affected by breast milk and formula.
Another thing is that if you have a stomachache and diarrhea, in addition to indigestion, you may also consider that your baby has caught a cold or has an intestinal infection. Pay attention to keeping warm, especially at the navel, drink plenty of warm water, disinfect baby products, observe the condition of diarrhea, avoid dehydration, and if it is severe, it is recommended to seek medical treatment from a doctor. Anti inflammation and diet control are necessary.
