Question

My baby had diarrhea yesterday and took probiotic patches and navel plasters. Today, they haven’t had a bowel movement for most of the day, but they seem fine otherwise, just crying a lot and always wanting to suckle. What’s going on?

Answer

Based on your description, it might be due to insufficient mother’s milk, causing the baby to not be satisfied with feedings and leading to crying. I suggest you observe if the baby shows any signs of abdominal pain. It’s recommended that the mother eat nutrient-rich, galactogogue foods, drink more water, and provide appropriate complementary foods. These are the suggestions for the question ‘How should I treat my baby’s diarrhea after taking probiotic patches and navel plasters?’ I hope this helps you. Wishing you and your baby good health!
