A newborn’s black stool may be due to an excessive amount of fecal fat leading to fatty acid attack on the intestinal mucosa, or it could be caused by the milk powder staying in the intestines for too long. If it occurs frequently, it is recommended to undergo regular stool checks to determine the cause.
Yellow, runny stools with bubbles in a newborn may be due to cold or dyspepsia. It is recommended to pay attention to keeping the baby warm and to give probiotics for treatment and adjustment.
Newborn constipation may be caused by insufficient water intake, excessive milk consumption, or low intestinal function.
A newborn began showing jaundice on the third day, but it hadn’t faded by the 36th day. After examination, the total bilirubin level was found to be as high as 305.0umoI/L, with an indirect bilirubin level of 261.7. After hospital treatment, the bilirubin level decreased, but the skin still appeared jaundiced. Possible causes include viral hepatitis, hemolytic disease, congenital genetic metabolic diseases, and more. Further investigation is needed to determine the cause.
The newborn’s frequent hiccups may be due to dyspepsia, which can be improved through tests of stool regularity, adjusting the amount of formula, and taking oral medication.
If a newborn suddenly wakes up and cries at night, it might be due to calcium deficiency causing night terrors.
If a newborn has loose and frequent stools, it could be due to dyspepsia or food accumulation. It’s recommended to seek medical advice and adjust the diet.
If a newborn has yellow liquid discharge from their left eye, it might be due to conjunctivitis. You can try drinking water infused with chrysanthemum and prunella, and apply eye drops externally. Additionally, for children who often vomit, it is recommended to reduce feeding amounts and hold the baby upright after feeding, gently patting the back until they burp to expel air from the stomach.
