Question

A three-month-old baby has been crying continuously, with a hoarse voice. After being held upright and moving around, the crying becomes louder. Suspecting that it might be due to indigestion in the belly, the question is asked whether probiotics can be given.

Answer

I’m glad to help you solve this problem. According to your description, your baby is already three months old and can be held upright. If the baby is crying non-stop, it is first necessary to confirm whether it is due to hunger, discomfort after defecation, abdominal pain, or other physical discomforts. Only when ensuring that all aspects of the baby are normal should crying be considered a need for companionship and comfort. If the baby has abdominal pain and abnormal stool, probiotics can be considered to regulate intestinal function. You can also try warming the baby’s abdomen, applying cold compresses, and massaging the abdomen in a clockwise direction to help expel gas. I hope my answer is helpful to you, and wish your baby grows up healthily and happily!
