Question
When can I start introducing complementary foods after my baby has diarrhea?
Answer
During the period of diarrhea, you should reduce the amount of complementary foods. However, if the diarrhea has improved, with the stool frequency decreasing and showing a normal paste-like consistency and yellow color, you can gradually increase the amount of complementary foods while observing your baby’s reaction. If your baby digests the new foods well, you can continue; if there are discomforts or symptoms worsen, you should pause and consult a doctor. Additionally, parents should pay attention to maintaining a balanced diet for their baby, avoid excessive bias or picky eating, and maintain good hygiene habits to prevent diseases from occurring.
