“The baby did not poop for a day and a night, is it normal” “The baby is 2 years old, often constipated how to do” “Drinking a lot of water, vegetables and fruits are eaten more, why is it still constipated” “Is the complementary food fed incorrectly”…… First of all, it is very important to clarify the cause of the baby’s constipation. Misconception 1: the child defecation time interval is long is constipated Many mothers will think that the baby 1 day no stool is constipated, subconsciously that the baby defecation must be in accordance with a certain frequency to normal, once the frequency is disrupted, mothers may feel very worried. In fact: constipation to “dry stool, defecation effort” as the basis of constipation is not based on the time between defecation as a standard, as long as the baby does not feel difficult to defecate, and good mental state, mothers do not need to worry. For example, some babies on liquid food, especially breast milk, digestion and absorption capacity is very strong, digested food residue, resulting in a long time to defecate, but defecation is not laborious, not dry, which is a normal phenomenon Myth 2: Drinking more water to correct constipation The main reason for constipation is not to drink not enough water, but the main reason for the food processing is too fine, too fine, although it is conducive to the absorption of the nutrients, but the disadvantage of the food residue is less, which is likely to lead to Constipation (of course, too coarse processing is not suitable, easy to lead to diarrhea). In fact: drink more water can not fundamentally correct the baby constipation, should take probiotics + cellulose to rule out intestinal development + food too fine problem, there is not enough fiber in the food, resulting in insufficient solid water substances in the stool, the formation of dry stool, for the baby who has been eating more fruits and vegetables, it is recommended to take probiotic preparations + cellulose (lactulose oral solution, wheat cellulose, etc.). Do not advocate the long-term use of dependent drugs to replace the cause of constipation to find and treat Misunderstanding 3: formula feeding, for fear that babies do not eat enough to brew thick Some formula-fed mothers are prone to fall into a misunderstanding, “babies usually eat less, that the milk powder brewed thick a little bit on the good,” in fact, the milk powder into the water is relatively too thick, but also prone to lead to constipation in babies. The actual fact is that the actual water is too thick, which can easily lead to the baby’s constipation. In fact: formula feeding in the “baby to milk protein intolerance” “parents add additional milk powder in the existing vitamin D and other elements” is also easy to cause constipation Solution 1, brewing powdered milk, add water first after adding powder, and powder and water ratio to the same as the milk can instructions, do not powder more water less; 2, the powder and water ratio is the same as the milk can. Do not powder more water less; 2, add active probiotic preparations; 3, replace the other formula or feed more fiber-containing fruits and vegetables (breastfeeding babies constipation chances are lower, breastfeeding mothers are advised not to wean their babies too early). Myth 4: the baby a constipation, long-term frequent use of corkscrew The use of corkscrew is only a temporary stimulation of defecation, but it must not be taken as a solution to the baby constipation. One may make the baby’s bowel habits produce psychological dependence, not active defecation; two may cover up and ignore some of the other causes of constipation. The correct way to use Keserol 1, choose the children’s dose of Keserol; 2, can be in the Keserol neck opening and the child’s anus coated with some olive oil; 3, gently pressed into the child’s anus into the rectum, and then squeezed into the medicinal liquid (after pulling out, remember to hold the anus in the hand to keep a few minutes). Improve dietary structure + good bowel habits can prevent constipation. Once the baby has “irregular bowel movement, long interval” and other problems are not constipation, no need to enlarge the constipation problem, only dry stools and the baby has difficulty in defecation is constipation. Of course, if the replacement of formula, or add probiotic preparations, eat more fruits and vegetables and so on still can not solve the constipation, it is recommended that mothers go to the hospital in a timely manner to see if the sigmoid colon length, food allergies and other causes, do not just rough use of corkscrew.
