Why is there foam in baby's poop?

Nowadays people are very concerned about the health of babies. Because babies have relatively poor physical fitness, you must pay close attention to some of their living habits in daily life. Many people are asking why there is foam in baby’s poop? This is related to the baby's diet and the nutritional combination that adults provide to children in daily life.

If there is a bad smell, it means protein is not digested properly; if it has a sour taste, is accompanied by foam, is slightly soft or paste-like, it means carbohydrate and sugar are not digested properly and there is excessive intestinal acid fermentation; if it looks like a cream, it means fat is not digested properly. If curds appear in the stool, they are mostly soap blocks formed by undigested fat and calcium or magnesium. A small amount is still normal.

The baby's health condition can be seen from his stool: the feces of breastfed babies are golden yellow, mostly uniform and paste-like, with occasional small milk clots and a sour taste, 2-3 times a day. Even if you have bowel movements 3-5 times a day, it can be considered normal if the stool does not contain too much water and is mushy. The foam is because: when you eat too much starch or sugar, the food in the intestine will ferment more, and the resulting stool will be dark brown watery stool with foam. So mothers should adjust their diet.

Why is there foam in baby's poop? Specifically, on the one hand, it may be a problem with the diet structure. In this case, not only the state of the stool will change, but also the smell will change. On the other hand, the baby may eat a lot of air, causing the baby to poop foamy. When we take the baby for a walk, or when we cover her with a quilt, or even when we move a little more, it will generate wind, causing the baby to eat a lot of air. These air in the baby's stomach will cause the baby to burp and make the baby's stool foamy. My baby also had this problem at that time, but I paid more attention to it and it got better after a while. Whether the baby has any major problems depends on the baby's mental state. If he loves to laugh, is lively, has a good mental state and a good appetite, then there is no problem.

As the baby's parents, you must be concerned about why there is foam in the baby's poop! So after reading my explanation, you should be very clear about this issue. I hope you can develop good eating and living habits for your baby from a young age, so that your life will get better and better!
