Why is the child's poop white?

When children are young, their poop is usually lighter in color because they eat a simple diet. Especially for children under one year old, they usually eat breast milk or formula, so the smell of their poop is not particularly strong. The color looks a little whitish and a little watery. If this phenomenon occurs after one year old, it is usually a gastrointestinal disease. So why does a child's poop turn white?

The reason why the stool of a 2-year-old baby is white

1. It may be due to diseases such as hepatitis that cause bile secretion to be blocked, making it impossible for bile to be discharged smoothly from the bile duct.

2. If you take too much white medicine, once you stop taking it, the most common thing is that you will occasionally have white stools for two or three days, and then it will return to normal yellow.

How to solve the problem of 2-year-old baby's white stool

1. Change your baby's milk powder to one that is nutritious and easy to digest and absorb. Some milk powders have too high fat content. If babies eat too much, they will easily get indigestion and have white stools. It is better to replace the milk powder with one that is easily digestible and absorbable for the baby in time.

2. Give your baby some hawthorn paste. Hawthorn can strengthen the stomach and aid digestion. Babies who eat some hawthorn paste can relieve the symptoms of indigestion, and gradually they will no longer have white stools.

3. Adjust your baby’s diet. During the period when your baby has white stools, try to give him more porridge and stewed vegetables. This way it is easier for the baby to digest and absorb. For example, millet and mung bean porridge, dried shrimp and rapeseed, etc.

4. Supplement some beneficial bacteria. If your baby has white stools, you can give him beneficial bacteria such as Mommy Love, which contains active bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis, which is very helpful in relieving your baby's indigestion symptoms.

5. Pay more attention to replenishing your baby with water. Giving your baby warm water can also help him overcome the difficulties of indigestion.
