Children eat more, pull more and sleep more, this is the characteristic of small babies!
And how well the child eats is digested, it is generally observed through stool!
When I was not a mother, I saw the child pulling the stool and covering his nose and turning his head to leave, but after the mother, he was eager to take a magnifying glass to observe the child's stool, because the child's stool can appreciate the child's digestion and even see the child's physical condition.
Many mothers about the child's poop are very concerned, and there are many rumors about the child's poop, and mothers should not listen to these rumors, otherwise it will hurt the child's body.
7 rumors of poop for children, you have heard a few
Myth 1: A child who does not urinate for a day is constipated
For breastfed children, pulling 5 times a day or 5 days to pull a stool, as long as the child's appetite is normal, sleep is normal, play is normal, the child's growth and development are normal, there will be no pain when pulling stool, and the time for the stool to come out will not be too long, which means that it is not constipation.
Breast milk for the child is a very easy to digest food, the child will be breast milk in the nutrition almost completely digested and absorbed, then it food residue will be relatively small, for the child's intestinal stimulation will be relatively small, so the amount of stool is relatively small, it may be stored for a few days to pull once, that is, our folk say to save the stomach. Therefore, a child who does not pull stool for a day does not actually mean constipation.
【Ying Mama Reminder】
Even a formula-fed child may only pull once every two days, as long as the child is normal in all aspects, do not worry about it, and do not give the child medication.
Rumor two: the child pulls the green poop and quickly changes the milk powder
Many children have been pit by this rumor, see the child drinking milk powder found that the big is green, just feel that this milk powder is not appropriate, the child quickly to change the child, do not know that the child needs a process when receiving new milk powder, when he can not digest the iron in the milk powder will pull out the green stool, or he drinks this new milk powder, drink less milk powder will cause hunger transformation, more likely to change the child milk powder at the same time to add vegetable supplements to the child, These green poop are actually chlorophyll vegetables that children can't digest.
Parents find that the child pulls out the green stool and quickly changes the milk powder, but it will hurt the child's gastrointestinal tract, especially the child before 6 months, do not easily change the milk powder for the child, the change of milk powder is a great challenge to the child's intestines.
As long as the child eats well, drinks well, grows well, and the stool is green and yellow, it doesn't matter.
Myth three: The poop is not formed, and breast milk will be weaned
Drink breast milk baby stool may be relatively thin, even pull 5, 6 times a day, at this time the mother will hear some of the milk powder boss lady will tell the mother, your stool is not formed, must be your breast milk is not suitable for the child to drink, you hurry to give him milk powder, the child as long as a drink milk powder stool is formed, the result of the mother to the child to change the milk powder, the stool is indeed formed, but found that the molding is too much, the child is constipated.
In fact, it is normal for the baby's stool to not form, as long as the child's growth and development are normal, sleep is normal, and play is normal, that means that there is no problem, do not easily wean the child's breast milk.
Myth four: constipation to eat bananas
Many of the bananas on the market are not ripe, and those cooked by drugs will contain tannic acid. Constipation to the child to eat bananas, will lead to the child's constipation more and more serious, so constipation eating bananas is actually a rumor, is a big pit.
Constipation in children may be related to improper diet, and it is necessary to adjust the diet instead of eating bananas.
Myth five: constipation drink honey water
In fact, it is not recommended for children to drink honey and honey before the age of one, which may lead to poisoning and harm the health of the child's body.
And honey water can not treat constipation, drinking honey water can alleviate or treat constipation, because the person is intolerant to the fructose in the honey can alleviate constipation, if the fructose tolerance, drinking honey can not relieve constipation.
Myth six: the milk powder inside the probiotics, the child will not be constipated
Milk powder with probiotics has become the selling point of many milk powder brands, milk powder with probiotics, children will not be constipated, but also a lot of publicity points.
The probiotics in the milk powder do not know how much content, then you have to see how much can be preserved in the child's mouth? And not all probiotics are able to regulate the gut.
Your child will certainly be less constipated than breast milk, so breastfeed your child as much as possible.
Myth Seven: Baby poop banana type is normal
Banana-type stools are indeed the best stools, representing yellow colors and shaped like bananas, but in fact, many breast-milking babies or babies who eat complementary foods are difficult to achieve banana-type stools. Mothers don't have to be too entangled, they want to make their children's stools turn into banana shapes, children eat green vegetables and stools turn green, and eat dragon fruit stools turn red, which is very normal.
We raise children instead of poop, as long as the child grows well, the stool is a little biased, there is no big problem.
