What to do if a child gets diarrhea after eating watermelon

We all know that watermelon is a cold food. Eating it in the summer can clear away heat and relieve summer heat. However, some people are not suitable for eating watermelon, especially those with stomach discomfort and children. They must eat less watermelon. Eating too much will easily cause diarrhea. So what should we do if children have diarrhea after eating watermelon? Let’s take a look at it below.

The main reason why babies have diarrhea after eating watermelon is probably because watermelon is too cold for babies, causing the baby's stomach to be unable to accept it and causing diarrhea. Generally speaking, many babies under one year old are still breastfeeding and sometimes eat less complementary food, so they should not eat fruits that are too cold or too hot. Even if your baby wants to eat, just a little bit is enough. Don't give your baby too much.

It is particularly important to note that foods such as popsicles, watermelons, apples (can be eaten if steamed), bananas, etc. will aggravate diarrhea, so they should not be given to babies at this time. If your baby has diarrhea after eating watermelon, you can try giving him some Mami Love or Smecta. If there is no significant effect, you should take your baby to the hospital to see a doctor. At the same time, you should also pay close attention to your baby's mental state. If other aspects are good, you don't have to worry too much. If there are other discomforts, you must go to the hospital immediately.

Through the above introduction, we know what to do if a child has diarrhea after eating watermelon. No matter it is summer or any other season, children can eat watermelon, but remember not to eat too much, especially for children with poor stomachs, eating too much will cause diarrhea, so be sure to pay attention.
