Question
What causes diarrhea in babies?
Answer
If your baby’s stool becomes loose and frequent, it might be due to dyspepsia or catching a cold. Parents can consider giving their baby oral probiotics and may opt to shorten the intervals between feedings or adjust the formula milk ratio to give the baby’s digestive system a rest. Also, make sure to keep your baby well-hydrated. If you’re breastfeeding, the mother’s diet could also affect the baby, so you might consider applying a belly patch to relieve diarrhea symptoms.
