Many mothers say that since becoming a mother, observing the baby’s poop has become their hobby, and every time the baby finished pooping, the mother is eager to take a magnifying glass to study it carefully. Once there is a change in the shape of the baby’s poop, the mother will immediately become anxious. It is not easy to be a mom, the baby is worried about eating and pooping. Questions about baby’s poop can rank first in the number of inquiries. It seems that there is a need to focus on this aspect of the popularization of science, different forms of poop corresponding to what kind of health problems of the baby, how can mothers identify a trick, quick interpretation? Below we will break it down one by one. First, the baby poop green stool how? Green stool is due to the immature development of the baby’s gastrointestinal function, bilirubin in the bile in the intestinal bifidobacteria under the action of oxidation into bilirubin, so that the stool is green. In other cases, when the discharged stool meets the oxygen in the air, bilirubin will also oxidize to biliverdin, making the stool green. When the baby has a cold abdomen, not eaten enough, etc., caused by the baby’s intestinal peristalsis is too fast, the bilirubin in the colon can not be reduced to bilirubin in time, which in turn makes the stools appear green. When the baby first added vegetable puree, the stool often discharged a small amount of green vegetable puree. In fact, most cases of green stools are normal, parents can not worry. As long as the baby eats normally, sleeps well and is in good spirits, there is no need to be too concerned. Usually give the baby more hot water, pay attention to the baby’s abdominal warmth, to ensure that the baby to eat enough can be (3 months within the baby’s daily milk amount of 500ml ~ 750ml, 4 ~ 6 months of the baby’s daily milk amount of 800ml ~ 1000ml). Second, how many times a day is normal for a baby to poop? Regardless of breastfeeding or formula-fed babies, the number of bowel movements for each baby is different if the baby’s stools are normal in character, lively in spirit, and has a good appetite as well as weight gain. Breastfeeding, more fully digested, less residue left, it is easy to save the belly, can be a few days or even more than ten days without stool; formula feeding, the stool may have milk petals, the odor is greater, 1-3 times a day; mixed feeding, need to look at the ratio of breast milk and formula milk every day, mixed feeding of the poop generally have a sour smell. The number of bowel movements varies at different times. Before 1 month, most babies have to pass stool several times a day, some even once every time after breastfeeding; some babies can also earn some poop when farting or moving a little bit forcefully. 2-3 months later, the number of bowel movements of many babies will be significantly reduced, but not necessarily reduced to once a day. If the frequency of stools increases and the stools become thinner and more watery, it may be diarrhea; if the stools are dry and hard and difficult to pass, and it takes a few days to pass the stools, it may be constipation. Whether it is diarrhea or constipation, should be under the guidance of a doctor, do not self-medication. Third, the baby cry when poop, poop out very hard how is it?” The baby a few days to poop, and the poop is dry and hard, defecation is very hard, and even the face of the red, these situations can be judged basically baby constipation. Once the baby is constipated, the mother should reflect on the baby’s timely hydration? Is the baby’s exercise enough? To the baby to add the dietary fiber rich in complementary food? Need special reminder is that the mother in the baby processing green leafy vegetables, should not be too fine, just blanch in boiling water after chopping to the baby to eat. Before the baby went to bed at night, the mother can use her hand along the baby navel first clockwise direction massage, can promote the baby intestinal peristalsis, help defecation. There are many parents can not distinguish between “constipation” and “save belly”, in fact, it is very simple: compared with constipation, save belly seems to be “gentle” more. Most often seen in 6 months of babies, especially pure breastfeeding baby. Because the baby on the breast milk of full digestion, absorption, resulting in the daily production of food residue is very little, not enough to stimulate the formation of rectal defecation. These food residues, always have to accumulate some “small partners” after, together out, so wait for a few days may be needed. If the baby is not discharged before the stool, height and weight growth, mental state, appetite, sleep can be; after the discharge of stool, stool soft, so you can conclude that the baby is not constipation and save belly. Fourth, what kind of stool is normal, parents do not need to worry? 1, milk petal poo milk petal poo is actually because the baby’s digestive system is immature or too much intake, resulting in casein in the protein can not be digested and absorbed. As the baby grows up, the milk flap will gradually disappear. When feeding, should also be reasonable feeding, to avoid the phenomenon of overfeeding. 2. Foamy stool It has nothing to do with being cold, but is actually a problem of sugar metabolism. Mom intake of too much starch, too much sugar, adjust the diet can be, has been added to the baby complementary food should also pay attention to the intake of these substances. Fifth, the baby’s which poop prompted the mother should go to the hospital? 1.Blood stool Mostly red, dark red, brown or black. If the baby takes a lot of iron, will form dark brown or black stools, such stools can not worry; crying, abdominal pain, more than two days of mucus stools or with blood, this time to consider infectious diarrhea; paroxysms of crying with jam-like stools, may be intussusception; if the tar-like black stools, may be gastrointestinal bleeding; if the stools are accompanied by bright red blood, the blood is mostly originated from the rectum or anus. These kinds of stools, in addition to taking iron caused by the reason, the rest of the possibilities should be timely to the hospital. 2, egg-shaped stool If the baby’s stool water increased, egg-shaped, stool increased, the mother must be vigilant, is likely to be a viral infection, as soon as possible to take the baby to the doctor; 3, grayish-white stool If the baby’s stool has been grayish-white or white clay color, may be congenital biliary obstruction caused by the best to the hospital in time to see a doctor. 4, tofu dregs-like stools yellowish green loose stools, sometimes tofu dregs-like, may be mycobacterial enteritis. Mycobacterial enteritis babies, mostly accompanied by thrush. It is best to seek prompt medical attention for this type of stool as well. Many of your baby’s poop problems ultimately come down to the digestive and absorptive abilities of your baby’s stomach and intestines. In infancy, the baby’s digestive system is not yet well developed, the intake of proteins, fats and other nutrients can not be well digested and absorbed, there will be a variety of digestive problems, which will lead to a variety of baby’s poop problems. Especially for formula-fed babies, if the milk powder is not properly selected, it is very easy to cause baby indigestion. Because the baby’s stomach and intestines are very fragile, overburdened, it is easy to metabolize incomplete; so if the baby to consume the formula, in the process of processing due to repeated heating and lead to the formation of large molecules of protein combined with lactose glycated protein (Meladic reaction) increase, the baby’s tender stomach and intestines are difficult to digest and absorb, which will result in the baby’s “constipation”. If you want your baby to have a better appetite, smoother bowel movements and stronger resistance, on the one hand, you should allow your baby to consume more water and fiber-rich fruits and vegetables to stimulate the baby’s intestinal peristalsis and soften the stool. The most critical thing is that the mother should find a suitable for the baby’s good digestion and easy to absorb “rations”, is the solution to the baby’s digestion and absorption problems of the first way. About the baby’s rations, I believe that mothers must have heard a lot of recommendations, also seen a lot of advertising, but “the king’s wife sells her own melon to sell their own boast”, all said that their products are good for digestion and easy to absorb, mothers can not see through who’s claim is true or false, do not know how to choose. Recently, a visualization video of the experiment “to know good milk powder, see through is the king” has been on fire. Through the experiment, mothers can visualize the milk in the baby’s body digestion and absorption process, contains more natural nutrients small molecules of milk powder, in the stomach diffusion faster, indicating better digestion; small molecules of protein penetrate the simulation of the wall of the small intestine more, indicating better absorption.
