The baby ate green vegetables and had diarrhea

When feeding their babies, parents will appropriately choose vegetables and meat dishes together, because this is the only way to achieve a balanced nutrition in the baby's body. However, when choosing vegetables for your baby, you must choose vegetables that are easy to digest and absorb, otherwise there will be some embarrassing results. Many parents have found that after their babies eat green vegetables, they still poop out green vegetables. Does this mean that there is something wrong with the baby's gastrointestinal system?

First of all, the mother must make sure that the baby has diarrhea due to eating only vegetables and no other foods. If the baby just poops vegetables, then it is not a big problem, because the baby's gastrointestinal motility is limited, and the vegetables cannot be completely digested after being eaten, so the poop will naturally be similar to the vegetables. This is a normal phenomenon. Next time when the mother prepares the vegetables, she may wish to make them more finely divided.

In addition, if the baby's stool is not only vegetable-like but also dark in color, this may be caused by the baby's failure to absorb the iron in the milk powder. Of course, if the baby is breastfed, this possibility should be ruled out. If your baby's stool is dark green, it may be caused by indigestion. When preparing complementary foods, it is best to make the vegetables into puree, which will help your baby's digestion and reduce the burden on his stomach and intestines.

In addition, if the baby has diarrhea and has diarrhea for a long time, the mother should supplement the baby with appropriate probiotics to help the intestines re-establish the balance of intestinal flora and maintain the baby's intestinal health. However, it should be noted that there are many types of probiotics on the market today, and their ingredients and effects vary greatly. Mothers must purchase them through regular channels.

The above is an introduction to the question of whether it is normal for babies to have diarrhea after eating vegetables. For babies who have just started to eat complementary foods, mothers should try to choose paste-like foods, such as vegetable puree, rice paste, etc. After the baby's stomach and intestines have adapted, they can then transition to liquid and semi-liquid foods. In addition, they should follow the principle of eating small and frequent meals. It is strictly forbidden to feed babies foods that are difficult to digest or greasy.
