How to treat breast milk diarrhea

How to treat breast milk diarrhea? The treatment of the disease is a topic that many patients are concerned about. The appearance of breast milk diarrhea makes new mothers rack their brains and don’t know what to do. In fact, the disease is not as serious as we think. Let’s take a look at how to treat breast milk diarrhea better?

When the so-called physiological breast milk diarrhea occurs, do not switch to milk feeding for the purpose of forming stool. The baby's body will gradually adapt to the prostaglandins in breast milk, and the lactase will gradually mature and the enzyme activity will increase, which will enable it to decompose, digest and absorb lactose, and the condition will gradually improve with the addition of complementary food. In addition, be careful not to cover the nipple of the child. After each breast is basically empty, if you continue to suck, the fat content in the milk will increase, which is easy to cause fat indigestion. It is recommended to suck if you want to, and stop if you don't want to. It takes about 10 minutes each time, and the full breast can be basically sucked empty.

In many cases, the baby just has frequent bowel movements, but the stool characteristics and baby condition are normal. This can be left alone and breastfeeding can continue. In this way, the baby's body will gradually adapt to the prostaglandins in breast milk, and the lactase will gradually mature, the enzyme activity will increase, and it will gradually be able to decompose, digest and absorb lactose, and gradually improve with the addition of complementary foods.

In terms of diet, you can feed 100 ml of fresh soy milk with 5 grams of glucose instead of milk, which can control physiological diarrhea. Soy milk feeding should not be used alone for a long time, and fish protein should be added gradually. The specific method is to mix 5 grams of fish protein with 180 ml of rice soup. Generally, infants can be fed 3 times a day.

Severe breast milk diarrhea should be treated. In this case, Chinese medicine can be used for treatment. For example, Jianpi Zhixie capsules can be used. The dosage varies according to age. The medicine in the capsule can be removed and taken after washing. Acupuncture can also be used for treatment, which is very effective.

Breast milk diarrhea is not common in real life. When diarrhea occurs, mothers should learn to use the elimination method. First, rule out the possibility of disease, and then decide how to deal with it according to the severity of the diarrhea. In many cases, the baby just has frequent bowel movements, but the stool characteristics and baby condition are normal, which can be left untreated. If the stool characteristics change significantly and the frequency is too frequent, it can be adjusted. Diarrhea caused by breast milk will improve as the baby's gastrointestinal development matures and complementary foods are added.
