Question
A 7-day-old newborn, fed a mix of breast milk and formula, has a bowel movement after each feeding, but the stool is not loose or dry, which is normal. Previously, the baby had one to two bowel movements a day, with larger amounts. Now, the baby has three to four bowel movements a day, with relatively small amounts. The baby’s appetite is good, and the weight has been steadily increasing. Lately, the baby has poor sleep quality and doesn’t sleep soundly.
Answer
It is recommended to give the child probiotics for treatment, and you can also use Pansheng, avoid eating cold and raw foods, pay attention to keeping warm, eat small meals frequently, and at the same time, observe the child’s digestion and supplement cod liver oil as needed.
