Question

A three-month-old baby has loose stools, not watery but sticky. What could be the cause? The baby is fed formula milk and has previously been treated with montmorillonite powder and probiotics for diarrhea, but the stools are still slightly loose.

Answer

Loose stools in a three-month-old baby may be a symptom of poor digestion. It is recommended to feed the baby a light and warm diet and keep the abdomen warm. Probiotics can be taken in moderation, and Panshi Sheng can be used for treatment. Additionally, abdominal massage in a clockwise direction can promote digestion. If there is no improvement after continuous observation, it is advisable to avoid eating cold and raw foods. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish the baby healthy growth!
