Question
Can a 4-day-old baby drink probiotics? My baby is now 24 days old and has milk clumps in their stool. Is this a symptom of digestive discomfort?
Answer
The baby is still very young, and their digestive function has not fully developed. It is recommended not to feed the baby probiotics as this may be harmful to the baby’s health. If you notice milk clumps in the baby’s stool, this could be a sign of digestive discomfort. You can try massaging the baby’s abdomen in a clockwise direction to promote absorption. If the situation is more severe, it is advisable to seek help from a professional pediatric massage therapist, as the effects are often very significant. Wishing the baby health and happiness.
