First, there is no problem.
1. Baby who drinks breast milk: If the stool looks yellow or golden yellow, the frequency of defecation is 3-5 times a day. Of course, some children can defecate 6-7 times a day, but the amount is not much, the stool characteristics are not abnormal, and the weight and nutrition are kept in good condition, indicating that the baby's health is no problem. Usually it is enough to change the baby into a soft and comfortable diaper.
2. Baby who drinks milk powder: The stool discharged by baby who drinks milk powder is slightly different from that of baby who drinks breast milk. Under normal circumstances, the stool is yellowish or khaki, with a hard texture and more sugar in the milk powder. The discharged stool will become soft and have a little rancid smell, so it is very important to choose a milk powder suitable for your baby's physique, which is more conducive to your baby's healthy growth.
Second, the consequences of lactase
Sometimes there will be milk petals and foam in the baby's stool, that is, milky white particles or petals appear in the stool. Then why is there a situation of "milk flap, foam stool"? It is because the lactase in the baby is lacking or its activity is not enough to fully decompose lactose in milk. After undiluted lactose enters the large intestine, it reacts with bacteria in the large intestine to produce sour stool, foamed stool and milk flap in stool. At this time, we can add lactase drops to the baby's milk to help fully decompose the lactose in the milk and reduce the lactose load in the baby.
Third, the situation of eating a bad stomach
If the characteristics of the baby's stool have changed, turning into loose stool or watery stool, and the number of stools has increased significantly than usual, it may be diarrhea. Therefore, mothers must pay attention to the baby's food hygiene. If it is really serious, they should see a doctor in time.
4. Unusual black and red feces
If the baby has black and red stool, it suggests that there may be something wrong with the baby's intestines. This situation first excludes whether the baby is caused by diet, otherwise it is necessary to take the baby to see a doctor in time, because the baby may have intestinal diseases such as gastrointestinal bleeding. Therefore, mothers should be prepared to protect their babies' stomachs and improve their immunity.
