Why does my baby eat little but have frequent bowel movements?
Babies often have excessive bowel movements due to poor digestion, which is caused by the inability of the intestines to better absorb food. In daily life, it is recommended to give babies probiotics or Mamiai to regulate their intestines and stomach. Babies should not be fed with indigestible or hard foods. At the same time, attention should be paid to keeping babies warm, especially at night, as abdominal cold exposure can lead to diarrhea.
1. Balance rest and exercise: Encourage children to engage in appropriate physical activities, which can promote intestinal motility and digest the food accumulated in the intestines. At the same time, ensure that children have sufficient sleep. Adequate rest ensures that the body functions normally and the digestive system recovers its vitality.
2. Adjust diet: When a child eats too much or consumes indigestible food, which leads to poor digestion, it is recommended to reduce their food intake, especially greasy foods such as meat and cake. Instead, they can eat foods that are easier to digest, like wonton noodles, as well as fruits and vegetables rich in fiber.
3. Seek medical treatment: If a child's digestive system is abnormal due to illness, resulting in poor digestion, parents should consult a doctor for treatment. Once the illness is cured, the underlying cause of poor digestion will also be resolved.
