Question
Can you drink yogurt during breastfeeding?
Answer
Baby Tianbao was born just over a month ago, but a few days ago, I developed acute gastritis due to eating too much soybean, and I recovered after a day. These days, the baby has been having some digestion issues, is restless and won’t sleep, gets fussy before having a bowel movement, and even throws up. After the bowel movement, the baby feels comfortable and can sleep. I’m not sure if it’s because my intestines and stomach are not in good condition that the baby has also been infected. The baby has been taking Mamimaai for two days, but there hasn’t been any improvement. Medical Analysis: From what you’ve described, the child is experiencing indigestion. Since the child is young, their digestive and absorption functions are not yet fully developed. Eating too much or eating the wrong things can easily lead to indigestion symptoms. Additionally, since the child is breastfed, the child’s health is closely related to the mother’s health. Guidance: It is recommended that the mother tries not to eat too many beans as they can easily cause bloating and affect the baby. The mother’s diet should mainly consist of light, easy-to-digest foods. The baby can take some digestive medicine, such as Mamimaai. It’s better not to drink too much yogurt and to eat more vegetables instead. Doctor’s Inquiry: How was the baby’s birth situation? Was there any oxygen deficiency at birth?
