Question
What is baby heat? Why does baby heat occur? How should pregnant women prevent and treat baby heat?
Answer
Baby heat primarily occurs due to pregnant women consuming excessive spicy and fried foods during pregnancy. These heat toxins may be transmitted to the fetus, causing the newborn to develop symptoms like eczema. Methods to prevent baby heat include using cooling and detoxifying Chinese medicine, as well as maintaining a reasonable diet, eating more nourishing and moisturizing foods, and less spicy and greasy foods, while ensuring smooth bowel movements.
