Question
My baby has poor digestion and mouth sores. The doctor has prescribed lactase tablets! But your experts recommend probiotics and montmorillonite powder. Which one do you think is more effective for the expert? The baby’s stool is very loose sometimes, even watery!
Answer
Based on your description, the breastfed baby has very loose stool, about 4 to 5 times a day, resembling water. This may be related to indigestion or catching a cold. It is recommended to give your baby fewer but more frequent meals and gently massage the abdomen to aid digestion. If formula feeding, pay attention to the cleanliness of feeding utensils and ensure proper sterilization. It is advisable to go to a professional hospital for a detailed check-up.
