Question
How should I treat a newborn with irregular bowel movements and digestive disorders? How should I supplement protein nutrients?
Answer
Digestive disorders in newborns are primarily caused by gastrointestinal dysfunction and decreased resistance. It is recommended to use digestive aids such as pepsin and multi-enzyme tablets, and in severe cases, antibiotics may be considered. At the same time, the diet should gradually transition from sugared water and rice porridge to normal food, and hydration should be noted. Breastfeeding is encouraged for infants as much as possible, avoiding weaning during summer, and feeding should be regular with no more than one feeding at a time.
