Question
My baby is over 50 days old, and the jaundice hasn’t gone away. I stopped breastfeeding and switched to formula milk. It’s the third day of feeding formula milk, but the baby’s stool is especially dry today, and only a little has been passed. Why is it so dry? Are there any ways to calm it down?
Answer
Dear inquirer, sometimes infants tend to have dry stool when they switch to formula milk. You can give the baby some water to drink, orally administer probiotics for a few days to nourish the intestinal flora, and for the jaundice, you can take symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication for a few days and expose the baby to sunlight appropriately.
