The baby is four months old and has green stools after drinking formula, although everything else is normal, the parents are worried whether they need to seek medical attention.
If a baby refuses breast milk and formula, it might be due to the formula’s taste not appealing to the child or discomfort after consumption. If there is no breast milk available, consider other food sources to ensure nutritional supply. Suggest changing the formula brand, adding glucose, or switching to nutritional porridge, congee, fish soup, and other soup-type foods.
If a newborn baby only wants to suck on a longer pacifier and refuses to breastfeed, you can use nipple shields or a breast pump to express milk and feed the baby with a bottle. Doctors suggest that while breastfeeding, the mother should pinch the areola, inserting the nipple and areola into the baby’s mouth. Let the baby lie on its side, with the chest and abdomen touching, and be patient as the baby suckles. After 1-2 days, the baby usually regains the ability to breastfeed. After feeding, remember to let the baby sit up and lean against the mother’s shoulder for burping, and protect the baby’s neck to prevent spitting up. I hope these suggestions can help you.
