    If my child has diarrhea, how can I tell if my child is dehydrated? Most of the time, newborns' stools are mushy, soft, yellow, brown, or green, 5 to 7 times a day, and some babies may pull 10 times.

    Some parents are worried when they see green stools, is it loose stool for honey? No, it's because the food is oxidized in the gut, or the yellow bile is oxidized and turns green.

    How can <> tell if a newborn has loose stools after all?

    The biggest feature of neonatal diarrhea is that the stool is watery, the number of pulls is much more than usual, and the smell is not the same as usual.

    Newborn stools are usually loose and moist, but when a baby has diarrhea, the stool can become watery. Therefore, even if the amount is not large, the diaper will come out every time you have a bowel movement.

    In addition, when your baby eats breast milk or formula milk, the poop will generally have a sour taste, but it will not be pungent. If your baby's bowel movements are not smooth, the sour taste of the stool will become strong and pungent.

    The easiest thing to tell is the number of stools. If the baby has diarrhea, the number of stools will increase, and may even double, and may even pull more than 20 times a day, and diarrhea can be considered if the baby poops more than 10 times a day. Basically, it depends on whether you have a good score, whether the baby's weight has increased normally, and if you don't worry, you can let the baby pull the stool in a clean basin and then wrap it in clean plastic wrap and put a bag of milk on it is the last time I went to the hospital for testing, I don't need to take the baby to it, and the feces should be grown within two hours.

    Children with diarrhea should be observed for dehydration.

    2. Tears: When crying, more tears indicate no dehydration, less tears indicate dehydration, and if there are no tears, it means severe dehydration.

    3.**Elasticity: Pinch the child's abdomen**, then release to see if it flattens immediately.

    If it can be flattened immediately, it means that the elasticity is good and there is no dehydration. Slow flattening indicates dehydration. It takes a long time to flatten out, indicating severe dehydration.

    4. Urine output: The amount of urine is the same as usual means that there is no dehydration, the decrease in urine output and the darkening color means dehydration, and the little or even no urine within 6 hours means severe dehydration.

    5. Thirst: Not thirsty means that there may not be dehydration, thirst means dehydration, thirst is obvious but can not drink water normally, dehydration is very serious.
