Question

A three-month-old girl baby, exclusively breastfed, has bowel movements about twice a day, normal in color, but with bubbles, and this condition has persisted for several days without any other abnormalities. Can she receive vaccinations in this situation?

Answer

The baby’s bowel condition does not affect vaccination. When breastfeeding, it is important to maintain hygiene, keep the nipples clean, and ensure hand hygiene after handling the baby’s stool. Since the baby’s stool is affected by the mother’s milk, the mother should also pay attention to a balanced diet, consume appropriate food, avoid fried and junk food, eat regularly, drink less cold drinks, and can give the baby a package of Bifidobacterium Triple Live Yeast Powder 1 packet twice a day, taken half an hour after feeding with warm water.
