Why does my baby poop contain foam?

Problems are likely to occur when babies are a few months old, which causes many mothers a lot of worry. If the baby does not eat well, it will be directly reflected in the stool. Many babies always have foam in their stool, which comes out on its own when they defecate. Some babies have bowel movements at least 3-4 times a day when they are in good condition, and sometimes 7-8 times a day. This is a normal phenomenon, mothers don't need to worry.

Usually, if there is foam in the baby's stool, it means that the baby's digestive function is not very good. For example, if there are too many food residues in the stool, the bacteria in the intestines will ferment and produce gas, thus causing foam to appear. It is best to adjust the diet structure for babies with indigestion. If you are breastfeeding, mothers should pay attention to eating easily digestible foods and try to reduce the intake of spicy foods or foods that are not conducive to digestion and absorption. Ensure adequate hydration. Furthermore, you can also feed some bacteria that have the function of regulating the intestines appropriately. If your baby has already started eating complementary foods, be careful to check whether there are any ingredients in the food that are difficult to digest. For example, whether there is too much sugar in the milk powder, or too much food residue, etc., these may cause indigestion problems for the baby. Usually, if the baby's stool is foamy due to indigestion, the frequency of bowel movements will increase, and the stool will be yellow or light green without mucus or accompanied by pus and blood.

Mothers should be more careful with their babies. Don't let the baby accept things he is not ready for too early, and don't let the baby eat things he can't eat yet. This is not good for the baby's growth and development. Moms, please relax and let your baby develop according to his own growth schedule. This is the best thing for your baby. Dear mothers, please keep working hard and strive to be a good mother.
