Question
My daughter is nine months old and doesn’t eat much, but she loves eating meat. Now she hasn’t had a bowel movement for three days, what should I do?
Answer
After children reach the age of 1 to 2 years old, their bowel movements may further decrease to one to two times a day. At this stage, parents can carefully observe the timing of their baby’s bowel movements to help the baby develop a regular bowel habit. Additionally, during the growth process of children, due to their immature digestive systems and changes in the quality and quantity of food, the digestive tract is prone to overloading, leading to infant diarrhea.
