What to do if your eleven-month-old baby has diarrhea

A normal baby only has bowel movements about 1 to 2 times a day, and the stool usually looks yellow. If your baby suddenly has diarrhea and defecates several times more than usual in a day, and if the stool does not look like a healthy yellow color, you may want to consider whether your baby is sick and you need to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. You should also pay more attention to your child’s diet and choose easily digestible food to feed him as much as possible.

Non-breast milk foods should be easy to digest and suitable for children's taste. Do not choose foods that take a long time to digest. Choose foods that are mainly starchy, such as rice porridge or vegetable porridge, and make them softer. But don't force your baby if he doesn't want to eat. It's no big problem if your baby doesn't eat non-breast milk foods for a period of time.

When water is lost due to diarrhea, it is very important to replenish more water. You can find more drinks that children like to drink, such as boiled water, fruit juice, vegetable juice, etc. When diarrhea is severe and accompanied by vomiting, water should be replenished more frequently.

After persistent severe diarrhea, although the diarrhea has stopped, it will take some time for the digestive function to return to normal. The baby cannot immediately resume eating the original non-breast milk food. Instead, the baby should first be fed the viscous food in the early stage of adding complementary foods, and then slowly resume eating after a few days. At the same time, you need to continue taking Biostime Children's Probiotic Granules for a period of time until the baby's intestines are fully restored to health.

The reason why children have diarrhea is definitely because of their bad living habits and their parents’ failure to take good care of them. They must pay attention to their diet. Diseases come from the mouth. Not only should they be careful not to let their children eat difficult-to-digest food, but they should also try to eat less greasy food. In addition, for the health of the baby, they need to take in enough iron, so they can usually drink milk powder containing iron.
