Question
The amount of milk my one-year-old drinks has significantly decreased in recent days. The baby suddenly cries during sleep, finds it hard to fall asleep after waking up at night, prefers to lie on its stomach, has loose stools with food residue, and experiences dry vomiting in the morning. We have given the child some pediatric Qizhen pills and water, and the doctor has provided guidance on medication.
Answer
The situation you described suggests that your child may have poor digestion. The baby’s gastrointestinal tract has not yet grown and developed properly, and it is still very delicate, which can easily lead to indigestion. It’s a good measure to give your child Qizhen Dan. If the child doesn’t want to drink milk, don’t force them to. Now, if they eat nutritionally processed food, it will only increase gastrointestinal pressure. You can give your child more Qizhen Dan or try some chicken gizzard powder, drink more warm water, some juice, and vegetable juice. Pay attention to the temperature.
