Several methods of preventing and treating infantile diarrhea
Breastfeeding can prevent diarrhea.
Especially in the first few months after birth, you should breastfeed. Because breast milk is most suitable for babies' nutritional needs and digestive ability. Breast milk contains a variety of digestive enzymes and antibodies needed by children, and various nutrients are very suitable for children to digest and absorb, which can neutralize the enterotoxin of Escherichia coli and prevent the infection of Escherichia coli, which is much superior to milk and breast milk substitutes. In addition to chronic diseases such as tuberculosis and heart and kidney diseases, breastfeeding should be advocated. Pay attention to the correct feeding method, breastfeed regularly, and avoid weaning in summer and when the child is sick. Breastfeeding can prevent diarrhea in children.
Use a bowl spoon instead of a bottle.
Bottles, especially rubber nipples, are easy to be contaminated, not easy to clean and disinfect, and easy to be contaminated, leading to diarrhea in children. If you change to a bowl spoon, the probability of pollution is smaller than that of a bottle.
Timely rehydration and prevention of dehydration
Most children have acute diarrhea, and frequent diarrhea will cause rapid loss of water and nutrients in the body, causing acute dehydration. At home, parents can add 20g white sugar (two flat spoons) and1.75g salt (half a beer bottle cap) to 500ml boiled water (or rice soup) for oral rehydration. Children with diarrhea need more fluids than usual, so they should be encouraged to drink more water from the beginning. Children under 2 years old can be supplemented with 50 ~ 100ml oral liquid after each diarrhea, and the daily intake is not less than 500ml;; People over 2 years old should drink as much as possible, with a daily intake of not less than 1000 ml to prevent dehydration. If the child has symptoms of dehydration, he should go to the hospital immediately and continue to supplement oral liquid on the way.
Add complementary food on time
Children grow and develop rapidly, whether breastfeeding or artificial feeding, complementary food should be added on time to meet nutritional needs. When adding complementary food, the variety should not be too much, and the replacement should not be too frequent. Only after the baby gradually adapts to the new food can he gradually add other foods. Specifically, when adding complementary food, we should pay attention to the baby's digestive ability, only increase one at a time, from less to more, and gradually increase. Generally, vitamins C and D are added half a month after birth, vegetable soup, milk cake or rice paste are added 2-3 months, and egg yolk, minced meat and chopped vegetables are added 4-6 months.
Pay attention to the quality of diet
When mixed feeding and artificial feeding are used for insufficient breast milk or insufficient breast milk, attention should be paid to diet distribution. It is not advisable to feed rice paste or porridge too much or too early to avoid indigestion of carbohydrates and affect children's growth and development. If the baby's breast milk is insufficient from birth to 3 months, it can be supplemented with milk or soybean milk. Both milk and milk substitute need to be properly diluted to facilitate digestion and absorption. When you have a bad appetite, you should not force yourself to eat.
strengthen body physique
At ordinary times, we should strengthen outdoor activities, improve our adaptability to the natural environment, pay attention to children's physical exercise, strengthen their physique, improve their physical resistance, and avoid contracting various diseases.
Avoid bad stimulation

Don't abuse antibiotics.
In fact, more than half of children's diarrhea is caused by viruses or improper diet. For diarrhea caused by these reasons, antibacterial drugs are not only ineffective, but will kill the normal flora in the intestine, cause flora disorder and aggravate diarrhea.
No need to fast, pay more water.
Some parents think that "eat more Dora, don't eat or pull" as soon as they see their children having diarrhea, and they are smart enough to fast their children. This is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire and will aggravate the degree of dehydration. Therefore, you don't need to fast when you have diarrhea, but you should replenish more water, especially a nutritious liquid or semi-liquid diet, such as rice porridge, noodles, milk and broth.
Carrot paste can cure diarrhea.
When the baby has diarrhea, taking carrot paste in batches at the same time of drug treatment will help the recovery of the disease. Take a proper amount of fresh carrots, wash and chop them, add water to boil, then take them out and mash them into paste (the water for cooking carrots is reserved for later use). When eating, add 5 to 100 g (about a spoonful) of carrot paste to 100 ml of boiled carrot water. The food intake is mainly based on the baby's food intake, which can be fed according to the usual food intake. Generally speaking, the baby is fed with carrot paste for 2 to 3 days, and the stool is formed.
