Question
Why does a newborn’s stool appear yellow with white, and is more frequent bowel movements a concern?
Answer
A newborn’s digestive system is not fully developed, which may cause stool to appear yellowish with white due to poor digestion. If there are no significant changes in the consistency of the stool, consider giving probiotics or lactobacillus to adjust the intestinal flora. If there is no improvement over a long period, it is advisable to consult with a medical professional to rule out other potential health issues, such as jaundice.
