Question

The baby’s stool becomes loose immediately after eating and later turns into a bloodwater-like foam. What should I do? The baby is allergic to protein and is consuming hydrolyzed protein formula.

Answer

Based on the description, the baby may be experiencing digestive discomfort due to a protein allergy. It is advisable to bring the baby to the hospital for blood tests, stool tests, and abdominal ultrasound as soon as possible to determine the cause and receive professional treatment recommendations. Before seeking medical attention, you can try giving the baby hydrolyzed protein formula, keep the baby’s mood stable, ensure adequate rest, and encourage drinking plenty of water. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
