What are the symptoms of indigestion in one month old babies?

When babies are just born, all aspects of their bodies are being tested by the outside world. This is also the process of them slowly adapting to a new environment. Many babies have milk curds in their stools after birth, their stools are too diluted, and they cannot have normal bowel movements for a long time. This makes many mothers very worried, fearing that their children’s digestion is not good. Here we will take you to understand the symptoms of indigestion in one-month-old babies.

1. Bad breath.

When milk and food stagnate in the stomach, bad breath often occurs first, especially bad breath and sour mouth in the morning, which are manifestations of milk and food stagnation. Clinically, this is called high-level food withdrawal. Parents will find that their baby has severe bad breath in the morning or when burping. This is a sign of indigestion and parents should pay attention.

2. Loss of appetite.

If the baby has indigestion, he will have symptoms such as loss of appetite, abdominal distension, and hyperactive bowel sounds. The doctor can even hear the "gurgling" sound from the baby's stomach without a stethoscope.

3. Spilling of milk.

The above is the introduction to the symptoms of indigestion in one-month-old babies that I want to introduce to you today. Have you all understood it clearly? If it is indigestion,

Young babies will often spit up milk, and older children will vomit. It is generally not serious, the vomit has a sour taste but the patient is in good spirits. Vomiting is accompanied by abdominal pain. Younger babies will cry and be restless, while older children will complain of abdominal pain. If the abdominal pain is not severe, it may resolve on its own. If you have severe abdominal pain, seek medical attention immediately.

4. Diarrhea.

The baby defecates 5 to 10 times a day. The stool contains a small amount of water and milk lumps and has a sour smell. The stool of older children is foul-smelling and is accompanied by food residues.

5. Restless sleep at night.

The child will be irritable, cry, have hot palms, sleep restlessly at night, and even have a low fever. He will kick off the quilt while sleeping and sweat a lot on his head when he just falls asleep. This is because too much food has accumulated in the stomach and intestines, causing internal heat. As the saying goes, "If you want a child to be well, keep him three parts hungry and cold" and "If the stomach is not in harmony, he will have a restless night."

The above is an introduction to the symptoms of indigestion in one-month-old babies. If the symptoms match those in the above description, parents should pay attention. Children will not express their discomfort, which requires close observation by parents. For unknown symptoms, you can take the child to the hospital for an examination and there is no need to worry too much.
