What happens if there are black lines in my baby’s poop?

After having a baby in the family, the whole family will become very busy, because everything about the baby requires sufficient care from the family, otherwise the baby's body will definitely not grow smoothly. Of course, as a baby grows up, things won’t be smooth sailing and there will always be some minor incidents. So the question is, some babies have black lines in their stool, what's going on?

The stool is watery and contains black threads, which may be related to improper addition of complementary foods or the child's inability to adapt to formula milk. It is a manifestation of indigestion caused by gastrointestinal dysfunction. Attention should be paid to the addition of complementary foods, breastfeeding in small meals, oral probiotics to regulate intestinal flora, and appropriate drugs to stop diarrhea. If the diarrhea is severe, oral rehydration salts should be used to prevent dehydration.

What to do if baby has black lines in stool

If there are black lines in the baby's poop, it means that the food the baby has eaten recently is not easy to digest. This is a typical symptom of indigestion, so parents must check whether the baby has eaten some indigestible food in the recent complementary food. Because the baby's stomach and intestines are delicate and the digestive function is poor, it is not easy for them to digest some hard things. Therefore, the baby's complementary food must be soft and rotten, which is conducive to the baby's digestion.

When a child has black lines in his stool, parents must make sure that the baby's diet is light, and try not to eat foods that are difficult to digest. The baby should drink more porridge and rice noodles, or eat some banana applesauce, etc. If the baby is breastfed, the mother must pay attention to the diet and not eat greasy foods or foods that are easy to cause inflammation. If the mother does not pay attention to the diet, the baby's stool may have black lines. If your baby has a lot of black lines in his stool, you can also give him some probiotics to effectively promote intestinal motility and restore his gastrointestinal function to normal.
