What is happening when a child passes bubbles?

Because the baby is in the period of physical development, the baby's immunity is relatively low. At this time, mothers should pay attention to the nutritional balance of the food the baby eats. Good nutrition can enhance the baby's resistance. When mothers find that the child is passing foam, they must pay attention to it and go for symptomatic treatment in time. Many people still don’t know why children pass foam. Let’s take a look at why children pass foam.

1. Indigestion. Generally, when a baby has foam when going to the toilet, it often indicates that the baby has indigestion and there are a lot of food residues remaining in the intestines. Under the decomposition and fermentation of intestinal bacteria, gas is produced, causing the baby's stool to have foam. At the same time, if the baby cries frequently and for a long time, he will often swallow more air, which will cause foam in the baby's stool.

2. Enteritis. While passing foam, the baby also vomits frequently, and may even vomit after eating. The stool is not in the form of regular strips, but is loose and even watery and may contain mucus. This is most likely caused by enteritis. Mothers need to take their babies to the doctor in time and follow the advice of professional doctors for treatment to prevent worsening of the condition.

3. Catch a cold. Babies have poor immunity. Changing seasons, improper diet, and kicking off the quilt at night may cause the baby to catch a cold, causing the intestinal system to collapse and resulting in diarrhea and foamy stools. Mothers need to control their babies' diet and keep them warm. They also need to pay attention to foods that can easily cause bloating, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, and soybeans, to help babies rebuild intestinal health.

4. Solutions to baby's foamy stools:

1. If your baby has diarrhea with foam, it is easy for the baby to lose water and electrolytes in the body. You must replenish water in time, otherwise it is easy for the baby to become dehydrated. Replenishing water does not only mean drinking water. Some dietary therapies can also focus on replenishing water in the baby's body and regulating the stomach and intestines.

2. Baby has diarrhea with foam:

Eat sweet potato flour (mix sweet potato flour with water, add a little sugar, steam it like steamed egg custard, and then feed it to the baby).

Fry millet and boil water to drink (Put a handful of rice in a pot and fry it over low heat (without adding oil) until the rice turns yellow, add appropriate amount of water and cook over low heat, and add a little guava leaves. Feed the soup to the baby once a day.)

Eat a cooked apple (steam an apple until it is soft, remove the skin, drink the juice and eat the pulp. Two days will basically be enough. Do not use medicine easily for children with diarrhea. Drink more warm water and ensure adequate rest).

3. If the baby has diarrhea and foam, don’t eat:

Raw and cold food (such as raw and cold fruits, cold milk, cold boiled water, etc.).

Foods rich in crude fiber (such as watermelon, raw pears, green vegetables, celery, spinach, grapefruit, tangerines, etc.)

Foods that easily cause bloating (such as soybeans, tofu, soy milk, mung beans, red beans, etc.).

Do not eat high-fat, high-protein foods (such as high-fat milk powder, cream, fatty meat, pastry eggs, duck eggs, minced meat, etc.).
