Question
The four-month-old baby has been experiencing diarrhea for over ten days. Sometimes, the baby has up to six or seven bowel movements a day, and sometimes four or five. The stools are yellow-green and mucous, and the baby’s belly often makes noises. However, the baby’s spirit and appetite are normal.
Answer
This may be a symptom of dyspepsia. It is recommended to start with dietary adjustments, adopting a small and frequent feeding pattern, and avoiding complementary foods that may cause diarrhea. If diarrhea occurs after the first feeding of a certain food, it is normal, but one should check the food source and consider changing the brand of formula. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish you health!
