Question
My baby has a bit of diarrhea, with a white, thick tongue, feeling sticky, and greenish stools with milk curds. The baby seems in good spirits and is still able to breastfeed well! What could this be, and what should I do?
Answer
Based on your description, it seems your baby might be suffering from digestive discomfort due to gastrointestinal issues. I suggest giving your baby probiotics, pepsin, and multi-enzyme tablets orally. Also, be cautious not to overfeed the baby and ensure the mother avoids spicy, greasy, and cold foods in her diet. Additionally, you can perform a warm massage on the baby’s abdomen to aid digestion. These are my suggestions for the issue of “a bit of diarrhea with a white, thick tongue.” I hope this helps and wish your baby a healthy recovery!
