Question
A four-month-old baby started having watery green stools after a bath. The baby had previously taken BaoLeAn and Chicken Gizzard powder, which helped, but now the baby still has a little green stool every few minutes, several times a day, but is in normal spirits. What’s going on?
Answer
A preliminary judgment suggests the baby might have caught a cold and caught a breeze, at which point it should be avoided to prevent the baby from catching a cold again. If the stool is green, small in quantity with much mucus, it could be a symptom of enteritis or indigestion. It is advisable to opt for a light diet for adjustment, avoiding irritating, spicy, and greasy foods. If necessary, oral medications such as Mommy Love or Baby Digestive Powder can be administered. At the same time, ensure the baby is well-hydrated.
