What's going on with the baby's unformed and smelly stool? Everyone knows that the digestive function of the gastrointestinal tract in infants and young children is not yet fully developed. Sometimes, if something is not completely digested after eating, the excreted stool will also become smelly. The condition of the baby's unformed stool is related to other factors. So, what are the reasons for the baby's unformed stool becoming smelly?
A 1-year-old baby's stool is not formed and very smelly
Poor digestion ability in infants and young children, improper food choices by parents, and incorrect dietary methods can easily lead to indigestion in babies. If a baby's stool smells like rotten eggs, it indicates excessive protein intake or protein indigestion. Parents need to pay attention to whether formula milk powder is prepared according to standards, and whether the baby's daily intake is excessive; Then the milk can be diluted appropriately or the milk volume can be limited for 1-2 days. If you have already added complementary foods such as egg yolks and fish meat to your baby, you can consider temporarily stopping the addition of such complementary foods and gradually adding them after the baby's stool returns to normal.
The reason why one year old babies have irregular and smelly stools
The health of the digestive system is very important during the growth and development of babies! Because babies are in a period of rapid growth from birth, they need sufficient nutrition to help their bodies grow and develop. However, newborn babies have a small stomach capacity, low secretion of digestive enzymes and gastric acid, slow peristalsis, and the special position of the stomach, which can easily lead to poor gastrointestinal function such as constipation, diarrhea, poor breastfeeding, vomiting, and bloating. Poor gastrointestinal function cannot be considered a serious problem during a baby's growth and development process, and these situations are common symptoms in babies. However, having common symptoms does not necessarily mean that they will disappear automatically.
If a baby has irregular stools or a foul odor, it must be taken seriously. Most cases are normal and are closely related to the baby's digestive system. However, in many cases, it is also related to external factors such as dietary habits and food choices. In the future, it is important to feed the baby correctly and pay attention to food choices.
