Question

A 3-month-old baby weighing 16 pounds, who usually has a bowel movement every 8-9 days, suddenly had diarrhea today on the 10th day. The stool contained green bubbles, and the baby had three more bowel movements. Symptoms of dehydration have appeared. What should be done in this situation?

Answer

At 3 months old, a baby’s spleen and stomach function are not yet fully developed. If the baby is exposed to cold or other conditions, this type of nausea and vomiting may occur again. It is recommended to give the baby Montmorillonite Powder, probiotics, and pediatric gastrointestinal health granules. Pay attention to prevent cold exposure. Additionally, belly button patches can be used externally.
