Question

Dear experts, I have a question. A 40-day-old baby is spitting up, has green stools, and there are milk curds. The baby has been breastfed and is pooping ten times a day. Is this normal?

Answer

Spitting up, green stools, and milk curds in a 40-day-old baby are some symptoms of dyspepsia. Therefore, it is recommended to feed the baby less often but more frequently during feeding, and to pay attention to the feeding posture, such as holding the baby in a cradled position with an inclined angle. Additionally, you can give the baby some probiotics to adjust, such as probiotics or Lactobacillus GG. Moreover, make sure to burp the baby regularly.
