Question
What to do if your baby’s stool has a sour, milky smell?
Answer
If your baby’s stool has a sour, milky smell, it may be caused by dyspepsia. It is recommended to give your baby probiotics and adjust their diet. You can give your baby some probiotic supplements like Mommy Love, along with someJianpi San (tonifying the spleen powder) and pepsin. At the same time, reduce the amount of milk, increase fluid intake, and if breastfeeding, the mother should avoid eating spicy, greasy, cold, and irritating foods. There are many triggers for dyspepsia. If diagnosed with dyspepsia, actively treat it in coordination with a doctor and perform gastrointestinal decompression. Parents should also pay attention to cultivating good eating habits in their children and avoid picky eating and dietary preferences.
