What is the situation of foamy stool in breastfed baby?

This may be due to indigestion in the baby. Only when the baby's digestion is poor and there are too many food residues, which are fermented and gasified by the bacteria in the intestines, will the stool be mixed with foam. Breastfed babies have foamy stools, which is also the most worrying problem for mothers. They are afraid that the baby’s intestinal absorption is not good. Let us understand what kind of situation this is.

In addition, the presence of foam in the stool may be related to the child crying for too long and swallowing a lot of air. If the child also vomits up milk, the vomited milk has a sour smell, or is accompanied by undigested milk lumps, or has abdominal distension (the child lies flat on the bed with the abdomen higher than the chest), the stool is accompanied by foam, without mucus or pus and blood, the frequency of bowel movements is just increased, and the stool is still yellow or a little light green and paste-like, or loose and rotten, then it is indigestion. You can feed some digestive water to help, or you can feed some Mommy Love to adjust the intestinal flora, and Smecta to stop diarrhea, etc.

In terms of diet, when breastfeeding, mothers should eat more easily digestible foods in order to provide their babies with easily digestible milk. When feeding with milk powder, you should choose one that is easy to digest, absorb, does not cause irritation to the stomach and intestines, and has little irritation to the stomach and intestines.

The above is an introduction to foamy stools in breastfed babies. In fact, in life, mothers have a great influence on the metabolism of their babies. Most mothers will choose to breastfeed, so if they eat cold food, their babies will have diarrhea, and if they eat spicy food, their babies will get angry. Mothers should pay attention to their daily diet.
