What is the situation of baby's stool being stringy?

Whenever the baby defecates, the mother and family members will look at the color and shape of the stool, because many health problems can be seen from the stool. So what does it mean when the baby's stool is stringy? The child is still young, and abnormal stools often occur due to some factors. The phenomenon of stringiness is also of great concern to the family, and it is important to understand the reasons.

The child's condition is caused by catching a cold. It is recommended that the child should not eat too much and eat more easily digestible food. The child must be covered with a quilt at night to avoid catching a cold. The child can be given some pomegranate peel and brown sugar boiled in water to drink, the abdomen can be massaged, some Mommy Love and Smecta can be taken orally, and navel patches can be used locally. Check the child's bowel movements, and use anti-inflammatory drugs if there is inflammation.

The feces of breastfed babies are golden yellow, ointment-like, non-smelly, and acidic. Newborns have 2-4 bowel movements a day, while one-year-old babies only have 1-2 bowel movements a day. Babies fed with milk have harder stools that are light yellow or grayish, neutral or alkaline, have a foul odor, and often contain white clots. They have 1-2 bowel movements a day.

If the breast milk is insufficient and the baby is fed with rice, noodles and other foods, the odor of the baby's stool will increase and the color will become darker, turning dark brown. If you add vegetables to your baby's diet, you may see green vegetable crumbs in his stool. This is not indigestion and will be cured by feeding him for a few more days without stopping. The baby's digestion and health can be judged from his stool. The stool is too smelly because of eating too much protein and indigestion. This phenomenon occurs when you just switch from breast milk to cow's milk. When there is a lot of foam, the sugar fermentation is vigorous, and it is not a problem.

It is a prejudice for mothers to think that the ideal baby stool should be golden, sticky, uniform and "visible stool". In fact, there is nothing uglier than breastfed poop. The color is not necessarily yellow, green is often the color. It is also rare to see uniform stools, most of which are mixed with white lumps or white lumps. Not only that, sometimes it is mixed with transparent stringy mucus. It is also not uncommon to see "diarrhea stool" with no beginning, like a broken egg yolk.

Through the above introduction, everyone has a clear idea of ​​what it means when the baby's stool is stringy. Generally speaking, as long as the baby is lively and active and there is nothing abnormal in his diet, it is okay even if there are some abnormalities in the stool. Breastfeeding mothers must pay attention to their diet and go to the hospital to consult a doctor when necessary.
