More than the poop entering the stomach,she may have aspirated it and it may have entered her airways/lungs. This could lead to respiratory difficulty in baby and in extreme cases cause pneumonia. she may not be able to breathe on her own and may require the help of oxygen to maintain her saturation.
Once her saturation comes to normal and she is able to breathe comfortably on her own and it is safe to accept mother feeds, she would be discharged
Next Steps
you can discuss everything with the treating doctor and if you find it difficult financially, you can shift the baby to a government facility
