If a breastfeeding mother has diarrhea, her baby is also prone to diarrhea, but this is not absolute, it can only mean that the baby has a higher chance of diarrhea. A. Diarrhea due to gastrointestinal inflammation Breastfeeding mothers who have diarrhea and accompanying cold and fever will affect their babies during breastfeeding. If the inflammatory infection is heavy, it may cause diarrhea in the baby, so it is necessary to temporarily stop breastfeeding and give some anti-diarrheal medication. Suggestion: Mothers can take Similac orally to stop diarrhea, or Huo Xiang Zheng Qi Oral Liquid (children and infants should not use Huo Xiang Zheng Qi Oral Liquid). If the diarrhea is obvious and the physical reduction of fever does not lower the body temperature, you should also take antipyretic drugs such as ibuprofen extended-release suspension and adjust the medication according to the body temperature. If the breastfeeding mother is using antibiotic drugs, she should suspend breastfeeding and wait for three days after her condition improves and stops. During the period of stopping breastfeeding, the mother should express the milk from her breasts every day to avoid back milk affecting breastfeeding again. Second, the infection virus causes diarrhea If a breastfeeding mother has diarrhea due to a virus infection, then it is sure to affect the health of the baby, and the baby will also have diarrhea. For example, rotavirus enteritis can be transmitted to the baby, even if the family members infected with rotavirus did not develop, but the recessive virus carrier can also infect the baby. Therefore, once the mother starts to have diarrhea, the baby will also have diarrhea. Suggestion: Mom should go to the hospital immediately for stool tests to check the details and professional treatment.
