During the defecation of newborns, about 4 to 5 times a day, more than 7 to 8 times. After the fetal stool is cleared, it is about 2 to 3 times a day, and the number of bowel movements becomes less frequent, about 1 to 2 times a day.
When the baby was born, he "defecated" many times a day, and many new parents said: they don't hate dirty and smelly, but they just think it's too troublesome, if they can queue once every 2 days.
Sugar mother just gave birth to the baby is this kind of psychology, every time the diaper is not wet, I am looking forward to the baby to give some face and not to pull anymore, but really wait until the baby is inconvenient for a few days, and can not be happy.
The baby did not pull the stink for 3 days, and the mother was sad
A few days ago there was a private message from Bao Mom I had a helpless and interesting experience, her baby did not have poop for 3 days, Bao Mom felt very normal, but the mother-in-law thought that the child was "constipated", got a lot of home remedies, scared her to stare at the mother-in-law all day, afraid that she would give the child home remedies.
The little baby could not take medicine, the old man made "egg yolk oil" to let the child drink laxative, and after being rejected, he found Kaiselu. Bao Mom was very helpless, so she took the child to see a doctor as an excuse, and took the baby back to her mother's house for a circle.
Just when the mother and the family talked about the problem of the baby not pulling the stink for three days, I saw that the baby's expression lying on the bed was gradually "wrong", and it was still quietly exerting force.
After a while, a burst of smell wafted out, the baby finally pulled the stink, bao mom put her mind at ease, glad not to listen to the mother-in-law's words to the child to use home remedies.
The baby does not pull the stink for a few days, may have entered the "belly high incidence period"
The baby pulls N times a day to N days, not necessarily constipation, it is likely to enter the "high incidence of belly", which is one of the milestones of growth and development. "Belly saving" is not a medical term, but a folk saying, used as a metaphor for those who hold up the stink for a long time before pulling it once.
Normal baby "belly", mostly between the full month and 2 months, the baby 3, 4 days do not pull the stink is the norm, some babies even 7 to 10 only once.
It doesn't look normal, but it's not sick. The phenomenon of "belly saving" is mainly due to the continuous improvement of the baby's digestive system. Increased chemical enzymes in the intestine lead to increased peristalsis and regular peristalsis. After a period of adaptation, the infant's gastrointestinal absorption capacity is also much higher than when it was just born.
Under this premise, the baby's digestion and absorption of breast milk and milk powder is more efficient, the food residue left in the intestine is reduced, and the rectum is not stimulated to produce a bowel reflex, and the phenomenon of stomach accumulation will occur. In other words, "it's not that it can't be pulled out, but there is no waste to drain."
However, the worries of bao parents are not superfluous, small babies do have constipation due to imperfect gastrointestinal function development and other reasons, but constipation and stomach can be clearly distinguished, and the two are different manifestations.
How to observe that the baby is "belly"? Or constipation?
It is also only once a few days, and the impact of belly saving and constipation on the baby is very different. At the very least, the stomach is not harmful to the baby, constipation is different, it makes the baby cry due to pain when pulling the stink, and it will also cause GM pain and bleeding. Parents want to observe the difference between belly saving and constipation, to see these conditions.
Look at the baby's appetite: the baby's appetite during the stomach saving period is normal, and the amount and number of milks eaten every day are not significantly reduced, which shows that his stomach and intestines have no discomfort.
Look at the baby's emotions: the baby's discomfort during constipation is strong, and there will be poor sleep, grumpy and crying, and poor mood every day. Because babies can't speak in words, they can only express themselves through crying and body language.
Look at the shape of the poop: when the stomach is normal, even if the baby does not pull for 7 days, the form of the poop will be yellow and soft, and there is no pain and strenuous performance during defecation.
In the case of constipation, the baby's stool is hard, dry, or may be "spherical", and the stool is obviously not smooth, and the difference between the two is very obvious.
Constipation has many adverse effects on the baby, parents do not confuse, in the usual time can also use some scientific methods, to avoid the baby's constipation, reduce the degree of constipation.
If you want to help your baby avoid and relieve constipation, parents can do this
Poop that has not been excreted for a long time will break down into ammonia or hydrogen sulfide in the large intestine. These substances are absorbed into the baby through the intestines and can have adverse effects on the development of the nervous system.
Long-term constipation, nutrients in the baby's intestines, can not be smoothly delivered to all parts of the body, affecting the normal operation of the baby's body function.
In the long run, the baby will experience malnutrition and other conditions, resulting in stunting. To avoid constipation in the baby, parents should do these things well in their daily lives.
1. Do not overfeed and spoil your baby's small belly
For infants within 4 months, the amount of milk required per meal is about: weight (kg) * 120 to 150 / number of feedings. Small infants have weak gastrointestinal function, overfeeding will increase the burden on the baby's stomach and intestines, and the stomach cannot absorb too much milk, resulting in a large amount of residue accumulation and constipation.
2. Do not add complementary foods too early
Baby just arrived at 4 months do not rush to add complementary foods, the time range for adding complementary foods is 4 to 8 months, adding complementary foods in about 6 months can be, pay attention to following the rules from thin to thick - from less to more - from single to diverse, so that the baby's stomach and intestines slowly adapt.
3. The abdomen can be massaged appropriately
Parents can let the baby lie flat after 1 hour of feeding and massage the abdomen appropriately. Gently massaging your baby's belly clockwise around your baby's navel stimulates intestinal peristalsis, flatulence, and promotes bowel movements.
Baby passive gymnastics have a similar effect, can increase the strength of the baby's abs, and move the body to make the intestines move.
Sugar Mother's heart words:
Every step of the baby's development is crucial, and new parents should learn to distinguish whether the baby is really sick or normal, so as not to be busy and not delay the baby's growth.
