Baby's mouth smells sour

After birth, babies cannot eat other foods and can only drink breast milk. However, if the baby's digestion is not good, it will cause a sour and smelly taste in the baby's mouth. This is because some babies do not have conversion enzymes in their stomachs. After eating breast milk, it cannot be converted into other nutrients in time, leading to indigestion. This situation can be adjusted through diet. You can let the baby drink more water, or add some lemon to the water to detoxify.

Baby's bad breath is mainly related to indigestion. Adjust the baby's diet, let him eat more light, easy to digest, and bowel-moisturizing complementary foods, especially more complementary foods containing vitamins and minerals, drink more boiled water, and pay attention to cultivating the baby's habit of fixed defecation.

First: There is a sour smell in the mouth

Normally, babies usually eat breast milk or formula, and when they grow older, they are given some complementary foods, but they are basically oil-free and salt-free, and the food they eat is naturally not as messy as what adults eat, so the baby's breath should be odorless. However, if we suddenly smell a sour and smelly smell in the baby's mouth, it means that the baby's digestion is not very good. This is also the simplest and most direct way to judge the baby's digestion and spleen and stomach problems.

Second: look at the color of the baby's tongue coating

It is easy to notice the baby's tongue coating problem at ordinary times, because babies like to lick everywhere with their tongues. If it is normal, the baby's tongue coating should be light red, but if you see some white or yellow tongue coating on the baby's tongue, it means that the baby has digestive problems, and there will be a sour and smelly smell in the mouth at this time.

Third: Abnormal urination and defecation

Sometimes you will see your baby poop green, which is a clear sign of indigestion. In addition, if the baby's stool is dry and hard, it also means that the baby's spleen and stomach function is not good. Normal poop should be golden yellow and have a good shape.

Fourth: Poor sleep

Sometimes you see your baby sleeping restlessly and always tossing and turning. This means that the child's stomach is uncomfortable, and if the stomach is uncomfortable, the baby naturally cannot have a good deep sleep, which will lead to poor rest and affect the baby's growth and development. Observing the child's sleep condition is also one of the homework of parents.

It is not easy to take care of children in winter, because when the weather is cold, children are prone to catching colds and chills, which will damage the baby's spleen and stomach function and cause various physical discomforts. Therefore, mothers must pay attention to keeping babies warm in winter, especially the baby's lower abdomen must not catch cold.
