Question
What should I do if my newborn has constipation after breastfeeding?
Answer
Based on the described situation, the newborn may be facing constipation caused by fluid deficiency. It is suggested to use ‘Bian Nai Tong Tea’ to alleviate symptoms of intestinal dryness and fluid deficiency. Additionally, you can try feeding some honey water and gently massaging the abdomen to help with defecation. If the situation does not improve, you can use a rectal suppository to assist with defecation. Wishing the baby healthy growth.
