Treatment for a three-month-old baby who has not defecated for two days

Nowadays, it is not uncommon for a three-month-old baby to not have a bowel movement for two days. We may have heard that a three-month-old baby has not had a bowel movement for two days. This kind of thing will really cause great trouble to our parents. They don’t know what to do, or even how to treat their children. Some parents do not pay enough attention to it, causing the baby’s condition to worsen. Every parent hopes that their children will grow up strong and healthy. So what are some good ways to treat newborns who only fart?

Treatment:

1. Change your baby’s food choices. You can boil pear juice with white radish, without removing the core of the pear, to treat your baby's constipation. Also, make sure your baby drinks plenty of water. Babies around one year old can choose honey water or fruit juice. Or you can increase the amount of sugar in the milk you feed your baby, add 5 to 8 grams of white sugar to 100 ml of milk, or you can feed some yogurt.

2. Massaging your baby can promote gastrointestinal motility. It plays an auxiliary role in the treatment of baby's constipation. Gently rub your baby's tummy before going to bed every day. Place your palm flat on the baby's navel with your palm facing down, and gently massage in a clockwise direction. This not only speeds up the baby's intestinal peristalsis and promotes defecation, but also helps promote the baby's digestion.

3. Ensure your baby's activity level. Lack of exercise can sometimes lead to constipation. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that your baby has a certain amount of activity every day. For babies who cannot walk or crawl independently, mom and dad should hold them more, do simple exercises with them, move their hands and feet, or rub their tummy appropriately, instead of leaving them alone in the cradle for a long time.

4. Develop the habit of regular bowel movements. It is also an important means to prevent baby constipation. Generally, babies over 3 months old can start training. After feeding in the morning, an adult should support the baby with both hands, or let him sit in a basin or a multi-functional toilet seat. If you do this on time continuously, you will develop the habit of regular bowel movements after one month.

5. Eat a balanced diet. If the baby does not have abdominal distension but only dry stools, you can add more sugar to the breast milk or feed the baby some fruit juice. Don't let your baby eat too much high-protein, high-fat food. Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins and minerals, and should account for an appropriate proportion in your baby's diet.

6. Drug treatment. Oral medication for treating constipation suitable for babies. The specific usage and dosage should be followed according to the doctor's advice.
