Question
Why does a newborn’s stool have bubbles, and what effects can it cause?
Answer
Newborn stool with bubbles may be due to cold or dyspepsia, especially the former. Although it could also be related to breast milk, the association with cold is usually stronger. For dyspepsia, consider using medications such as pediatric digestive aid tablets, lactase, and multi-enzyme tablets, along with drugs that improve spleen health and promote absorption, such as spleen-nourishing granules, and wake-up and nourish children’s granules. Additionally, feeding warm water appropriately can help alleviate symptoms. I hope these suggestions can help you, and wish your baby good health.
