Question

My son is just 16 days old, and his stool is yellowish and milky, with some watery substances. Is this normal? I would appreciate an answer. Thank you.

Answer

Yes, it is normal. The first month of a newborn’s life is like that of a tender seedling, entirely reliant on the care of their parents. Understanding the physiological characteristics and developmental process of newborns is essential for ensuring their healthy growth. Breast milk is the best nourishment for infants. Vaccinations can provide effective protection for your baby against infectious diseases. As a mother, while you take good care of your baby, don’t forget about yourself either. Postpartum health care is important for both you and your baby.
