Question
I would like to consult about my baby’s diarrhea issue. The baby doesn’t know if it’s because they were drinking my breast milk that caused nausea and vomiting. I ate papaya stewed with milk, which is cooling in nature. Could this directly lead to the baby having diarrhea? Dear doctor, what should I be aware of in terms of daily diet? What can and cannot be eaten?
Answer
In this patient’s case, the baby’s diarrhea may be due to digestive issues after breastfeeding, possibly related to the mother’s irregular diet, which may have disturbed the milk. It is recommended to pay attention to dietary rationality in the future and properly nourish the child. The issue of diarrhea can be addressed by using probiotics for nourishment, and gastrointestinal adjusting medication can be used, but it must be done under a doctor’s supervision.
