Question
My four-month-old baby is exclusively breastfed but is experiencing indigestion and diarrhea. I want to know how much rice should be added to the porridge?
Answer
In this situation, it is recommended not to add any substances to the baby’s diet, including rice porridge. Indigestion and diarrhea can be caused by various reasons, such as lactose intolerance, food allergies, and infections. It is advisable for parents to take their child to a pediatrician for examination to determine the cause and receive professional treatment advice. If necessary, the doctor will suggest appropriate dietary adjustments or medication treatment.
