Causes and treatments of loose stools in children

What is the reason for children's loose stools? As parents, do you know? Children's health is very important. We cannot ignore the situation. Parents must know what to do if their children are not healthy. We all hope that our children are healthy. So how much do you know about the reasons for children's loose stools? Then let's take a look at the specific situation with the editor below!

1. What is the reason for children's loose stools? I believe some mothers have encountered the situation of their children having loose stools. In fact, children's loose stools are mostly related to improper feeding of the baby.

2. Some babies' stools may contain milk curds or be green or watery. This is not a big deal and you should not think that the baby has indigestion or enteritis. As long as the baby is eating well, his abdomen is not bloated, and there is no excess water or separation of stool and water, it is not abnormal.

3. If the baby's stools are loose and green, the time interval between feedings is shortened, and he seems to be always hungry, it may be that there is insufficient breast milk. But do not add milk powder easily. Measure your body weight at the same time every day and record your daily weight gain. If your daily weight gain is less than 20 grams, or your weight gain in 5 days is less than 100 grams, try adding milk powder again. Observe whether the baby becomes quiet and whether the time to the next feeding is prolonged. If so, add milk powder once a day. If the weight has increased by more than 100 grams after 5 days, or even reaches 150-200 grams, it proves that insufficient breast milk has caused the loose and green stools. People say that children are straightforward and will poop as soon as they eat. The mother changes the baby's diaper cleanly, then picks up the baby to feed. Before the baby has taken a few bites, he or she defecates. The mother will think it is abnormal, and will give the baby medicine. In this situation, don't rush to change the baby's diaper, because changing the baby's diaper immediately will not only interrupt the baby's feeding, thus causing the baby to miss a meal; it will also cause the baby to spill the milk he just drank, aggravating the degree of milk spillage; in addition, it will increase the burden of care, so wait until the baby finishes feeding before changing the diaper.

In fact, when children are sick, we need to pay more attention. The problems in childhood may affect the growth of children. We must pay attention to the situation clearly. So how much do you know about the situation introduced by the editor? Parents should see and understand clearly how to prescribe the right medicine for their children's situation!
