Question

A 6-month-old baby seems not to be hungry or willing to drink milk during the day. When they do feel hungry, they may start to struggle for milk, but they seem uninterested in drinking. They clamp down on the nipple and then give up after drinking just a few sips. Only at night, when they are asleep and held, do they close their eyes to drink milk. Last night, they drank milk twice during the night, but didn’t urinate in the morning. During their nap, they would suddenly cry and appear bloated, with kicking and stretching movements. Their urine also has an unusual odor, and their farts are very smelly. They seem to be teething, and often forget to give them Vitamin AD. Doctor, please explain what’s going on, and thank you for your help.

It is recommended to gently massage your baby’s abdomen and ensure they drink enough water. Also, pay attention to keeping their abdomen warm. Additionally, it is suggested to appropriately supplement calcium.
