What should I do if my baby has bubbly stool?
It is common in life for babies to have bubble stools. For all new parents, any changes in their babies will affect their hearts. Bubble stools in newborns may be related to indigestion, enteritis, and other diseases. It is important to observe the baby's diet, adjust clothing appropriately, reduce the occurrence of enteritis, and take warmth measures in autumn and winter to reduce diarrhea. Here are the reasons why babies may have foamy stools:
1. Standard sleep time for babies of a certain age: It could be due to indigestion, where there are more food residues in the intestine. The intestinal bacteria ferment and produce gas, leading to this situation.
2. Baby suffering from enteritis: Apart from bubble stools, there may be severe milk regurgitation, and the stool may contain mucus. This is a serious condition and requires immediate medical attention.
1. If it is caused by indigestion, you can feed the baby some digestive water or adjust the intestinal flora to help regulate it.
2. If it is caused by enteritis, do not delay and seek medical attention immediately. The doctor will diagnose and provide appropriate treatment.
3. Pay attention to the baby's clothing and warmth. Even in hot summer, avoid letting the baby's navel and feet become cold, as it can easily lead to diarrhea.
4. For babies who are breastfed, the mother's diet can affect the baby's health. Therefore, mothers should avoid eating too cold, greasy, salty, or spicy foods.
5. If the baby has diarrhea, avoid introducing new foods during this period, as it may worsen the situation.
6. When administering medication to babies, it is crucial to follow the doctor's instructions and not give them medication randomly.
