The baby was premature by half a month and has been weak since birth. My milk hasn’t come in yet, so I want to give the baby formula milk. But as a preterm baby, I’m not sure which formula milk is suitable? Preterm babies have underdeveloped functions due to their early birth. Therefore, it’s very important to choose the right formula milk for them. There are formulas specifically designed for preterm babies to meet their weaker gastrointestinal digestive abilities. Additionally, during feeding, you can choose a slightly harder nipple to slow down the feeding speed. There are various preterm baby formulas available, which are produced according to the special constitution of preterm babies and contain high-quality ingredients and rich nutritional components. Feeding preterm babies with specialized formula milk is more beneficial for their healthy development. Under the guidance of a doctor, based on the comprehensive indicators of the growth and development of preterm babies, they can gradually transition to regular formula milk.
Children may experience dark green stool after changing formula milk due to an intolerance or digestive issues. It is recommended to gradually transition to the new formula, avoid sudden changes, and consider giving children gastrointestinal regulators such as Mamima Ai or Bifidobacterium probiotics to help improve the function of the digestive system. Additionally, maintaining good hygiene habits and a reasonable diet are important factors in preventing digestive problems. If the child’s symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further examination and treatment.
