What causes foamy stools in newborns?

Foamy stools in newborns are abnormal. Newborns do not have any ability to express themselves, and their parents can only observe whether they are healthy. Many mothers lack certain experience in taking care of their children. When they have abnormal bowel movements, they don’t know what to do. Here we will introduce the reasons why newborns have foamy stools.

First: Check if the baby has caught a cold? Does the baby usually have a runny nose? Is the indoor temperature below 20 degrees Celsius? Is the baby wearing a bellyband? When changing diapers, did you pay attention to closing the doors and windows to prevent wind? These may cause the baby to catch a cold, and if the baby catches a cold, he will have green stools. There will be bubbles too.

Second: Does the baby have indigestion? Check if there is a thick coating on the baby's tongue. If there is coating, it means the baby has indigestion. Give the baby some Mommy Love. Mommy Love contains active bacteria and has no drug side effects, so you can eat it with confidence.

If none of the above is true, then it's the mother's problem. The mother must eat too much greasy food. At that time, I also gave my baby medicine and paid attention to his clothes, but the baby kept having foamy stools. Finally, I found out that it was because I ate too much greasy food and the baby could not digest my milk. After I changed to drinking vegetable soup, the baby got better immediately. (I used to have a pot of pig’s trotter soup every day, haha) You can try it. If it still doesn’t work, put a little baby’s feces on a cotton swab and take it for testing to see if there are any bacteria.

The above are the reasons why newborns have foamy stools. Newborns are generally breastfed, so the eating habits of mothers will often have a certain impact on the baby. For the health of the baby, mothers should not eat cold food, as this will cause diarrhea in their babies.
