Question

The baby is not yet a month old and has started showing a lack of appetite for breast milk. The baby’s spirit is good, but the baby has been very fussy with food since last night. I would like to know the possible causes.

Answer

This situation may be caused by a cold or dyspepsia. Observe the baby’s tongue coating to see if it is thick and check if there are milk lumps in the stool. If dyspepsia is suspected, consider giving the baby probiotics or digestive syrup orally. Additionally, if there are people with colds at home, they may infect the baby, so special attention is needed.
