Baby’s stools are dry first and then loose, which may be caused by constipation, gastrointestinal tract dysfunction, improper diet and so on.
1. Constipation: Due to the imperfect development of the baby’s digestive system, the gastrointestinal tract has poor peristalsis, which may cause constipation, resulting in dry stools followed by loose stools.
2. Gastrointestinal tract dysfunction: when the baby’s gastrointestinal tract dysfunction, it will lead to intestinal peristalsis suddenly increased. Intestinal peristalsis will make the feces in the colon be rapidly pushed into the rectum, when part of the water in the feces has not yet had time to be fully absorbed, the stool will also appear first dry and then dilute symptoms.
3. Improper diet: When you have a poor diet, it is also easy to have dry stools followed by loose stools. If the water content in the food you eat is low and the water in the front of the stool is absorbed by the colon, the stool will be dry in the front and thinner in the back.
There may be other reasons for your baby’s stools to be dry and then loose. We recommend that you visit the hospital in a timely manner, have a thorough examination to determine the cause of the problem, and then give targeted treatment under the guidance of your doctor.
