What to do if a newborn baby has diarrhea after changing milk powder

You must be cautious when changing the milk powder for your newborn. If you are not careful, the child may have diarrhea or constipation. If the milk powder is not changed properly, the child may cry constantly. When changing milk powder, don't rush it. Change it slowly and let the child slowly adapt to the new milk powder before gradually replacing it. The transition time to powdered milk is generally about three to five days. If your child has diarrhea after changing milk powder, you should deal with it immediately.

Mix new and old milk powder together. Don’t change milk powder all at once, as your baby won’t be able to adapt to it and may easily get diarrhea. At the beginning, scoop one-third of new milk powder and then scoop two-thirds of old milk powder for the baby to drink. After drinking 1:3 milk powder for two days, mix half a spoonful of new milk powder and half a spoonful of old milk powder. This way the baby will be able to adapt more easily. Control the number of times you feed formula every day. During the period of changing milk powder, try to give your baby less milk powder and add more complementary foods. This gradual transition will help the baby adapt. You can reduce the amount of milk powder you drink from 3 times a day to 2 times a day.

If your baby has diarrhea after drinking milk powder and it is not very serious, you can give your baby Mommy Love for a few days, which may help stop the diarrhea. If your baby's diarrhea does not improve after using the above method for a week, stop feeding the new milk powder and continue to feed the old milk powder. Or change to another new milk powder. Since children's digestive function is not yet perfect, do not change milk powder frequently, which may easily cause digestive dysfunction or even diarrhea. Changing to new milk powder also requires an adaptation process.

The gastrointestinal tract of a newborn is very delicate. When changing your baby's milk powder, you must choose milk powder produced by a regular milk powder manufacturer. Only in this way can the quality of the milk powder be guaranteed and the nutrients can be easily absorbed. You won’t easily get a sore throat or constipation after eating it. When purchasing milk powder, be sure to check the production date and shelf life. Once you find that the milk powder has quality problems, you must stop using it immediately.
