Question
My baby is two months old and has a bowel movement every three days. However, every time they try to poop, it doesn’t come out, and the stool is not dry but rather cannot be expelled. I remember them crying, it’s really painful.
Answer
Based on your description, your baby may be experiencing difficulties with bowel movements. This could be due to a lack of intestinal motility, a lack of probiotics, or rectal prolapse. Firstly, maintain emotional stability, ensure adequate rest and sleep, and increase the intake of vegetables, fruits, and high-fiber foods. You can try taking oral medications such as Simen Decoction Oral Liquid and Golden Bifidus for treatment. If the problem persists, it is recommended to bring your baby to a regular pediatrician’s office for a consultation, where a professional doctor can diagnose and treat the condition.
