Question
What should I do if my two-month-old baby has diarrhea 5-6 times a day, sometimes with frothy stools and sometimes with a bit of gas? Can I give the baby Monilia granules and Lactobacillus acidophilus powder at the same time?
Answer
Do not take medication blindly. Your baby’s condition may be due to indigestion or stomach cold. You can try giving your baby some probiotics to regulate their digestion and ensure they drink plenty of water. Also, pay attention to keeping your baby warm, especially around the abdomen. If the baby is breastfed, please try to avoid feeding your baby spicy, stimulating and cold foods. It is recommended to eat less greasy food and more astringent foods in your daily diet. If the baby’s condition does not worsen, you can give the baby some easily digestible food to help alleviate the symptoms.
