How to prevent breast milk diarrhea through lifestyle habits

How to prevent breast milk diarrhea from lifestyle habits? Children with breast milk diarrhea have abnormally frequent bowel movements, which gradually increase, usually 3-7 times a day. The stools are watery, foamy, and have a special sour smell. However, the baby's mental state is generally good. Let's take a look at how to prevent breast milk diarrhea from lifestyle habits.

1. Breastfeeding mothers should eat light food, eat less greasy food, and skim off the floating oil when drinking soup. It is recommended to drink millet porridge for breakfast every day, eat light stir-fried vegetables, eat more fruits on weekdays, and ensure a balanced nutrition of meat and vegetables. If the mother eats too much greasy food, the baby will also have diarrhea and oily stools if the fat intake is too high. The mother should pay attention to remove the oil on the soup with a spoon.

2. It is recommended to give your baby millet soup once a day, which can relieve your baby's diarrhea and nourish the spleen and stomach. After adding complementary foods to your baby, give your baby more water and more protein. Vegetables, fruits and coarse grains should be arranged reasonably. In addition, you can also eat some milk powder that has the function of enhancing immunity.

3. Also, be careful not to cover the nipple when breastfeeding. Because 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 when you want to, and stop when you don’t want to. Each time for about 10 minutes, the full breast can be basically sucked empty.

4. Too much lactose in food can also cause breast milk diarrhea in babies, so new mothers should choose lactose-free foods when adding complementary foods to their babies. In addition, adding 5g of glucose to 100ml of fresh soy milk instead of breast milk can alleviate physiological diarrhea in babies, but it should be noted that this method is not suitable for long-term use alone.

There is no fever during breast milk diarrhea, the baby does not have obvious pain or crying, and the stool test shows no abnormal infection. The degree of diarrhea generally has no other symptoms, and the baby is lively and has a good appetite. Although the diarrhea lasts for a long time, the baby's weight gain can still be maintained at about 300g every 10 days, and it is not cured. If the diarrhea lasts for a long time, it may lead to serious consequences such as growth stagnation and malnutrition in the baby, which requires timely treatment.
