Newborn babies will be easy to appear without pulling the poop problem, many novice mothers will feel that it is because the child is on fire, they can not pull out the poop, so they give the child more white water, but the effect does not seem to be obvious, still did not solve the problem of the child can not pull out the poop, so what is the cause of neonatal constipation? Today Xiaobian will take you to take a look at it!
First, congenital physiological defects
Some babies may be constipated due to congenital physical defects, such as: intestinal obstruction, intestinal stenosis, congenital megacolon, etc., if parents find that the child is in this situation, they need to go to the hospital for further examination and treatment as soon as possible.
2. Functional constipation
This type of constipation is a normal phenomenon, which can be restored to normal through later conditioning, and parents do not need to be too anxious.
Let's break down these reasons:
Constipation caused by improper diet; newborn children have stricter dietary requirements, if the intake of fiber is insufficient, it will lead to insufficient stimulation of the intestinal wall, and finally it will show constipation; if the intake of high-protein foods is too much, it is easy to make the intestinal flora relatively reduced, which will lead to dry stool.
Irregular defecation; because the baby's bowel time is irregular and lacks relevant training, there is no way to form a timed fixed point of defecation reflex, sometimes there may be a feeling of defecation, the child will not speak or because of the greedy play caused by the defecation is disturbed, the stool may be suppressed, for a long time, the stool accumulates in the intestine, after the water is absorbed, it will become very dry, so there is a constipation.
Mental factors; there are some mental stimuli that can also cause transient constipation in newborns, such as sudden changes in living environment that cause children to fear defecation.
If we find the cause of constipation, we can solve it according to its cause
1. You can adjust the diet structure appropriately, you can appropriately add a little vegetable juice, fruit juice and the like between meals, and also appropriately add water to the baby, and the older baby can add some cereals, which is conducive to the peristalsis of the baby's intestines.
2. Massage the abdomen; now more popular tuina, our mother can gently massage the child's abdomen in a clockwise direction with the palm of your hand, which can speed up the baby's intestinal peristalsis and speed up defecation.
3. Children can be properly trained to defecate regularly, children 3 months after birth can implement the training of defecation habits, after feeding in the morning, parents can hold the child with both hands or let the child sit on the potty, continuous training for about half a month, it will have an effect.
