Question
A 10-month-old baby has recently been experiencing severe diarrhea, especially after drinking formula milk. The parents are anxious and would like to know how to properly handle this situation.
Answer
For infants of this age, diarrhea is often related to improper diet. If the diarrhea is caused by the formula milk, it is recommended to try a different brand. If the baby is breastfed, the mother’s diet should also avoid cold, hard foods. Under medical advice, you can initially give the baby an antidiarrheal medicine such as Montmorillonite powder. When dealing with a baby’s diarrhea, it is important to consider various factors and start with adjusting the feeding method.
