How to Prevent Diarrhea in Babies.

[Mataracy]

Am hammering much on this Diarrhea much because its so common to Babies than adults.

The important suggestion on how to prevent diarrhea in babies is that:

(1) One should keep their baby clean and in a clean place. Try yo keep her from putting dirty things in her mouth.

(2) Breast feed rather than bottle feed babies.
Give only breast milk for the first 4 months . Breast milk helps babies resist the infections that cause diarrhea. If it is not possible to breast feed a baby, feed her with a cup and spoon.
Do not use more likely yo cause an infection.

- When you begin to give the baby new or solid foods, start by giving her just a little, and mashing it well and mixing it with a little breast milk. The baby has to learn how to digest new foods.
Do not stop giving breast milk suddenly. Start with other foods while the baby is still breast feeding. If she starts with too much new food at one time , she may get diarrhea.

Treatment:
For most cases of diarrhea no medicine is needed. If the diarrhea is severe, the biggest danger is dehydration.
If the diarrhea lasts a long time, this biggest danger is malnutrition. So the most important part of treatment has to do with giving enough liquids and enough food..

Basically, keep as quiet as possible and drink water such as ion drinks diligently. Avoid high-fat and high-fiber diets, and use udon, porridge, and other foods that are easy to digest. Also, when your stomach gets cold, warm your stomach with a hot water bottle or layered clothes. Avoid cold drinks and drink hot drinks.
