Question
My baby has loose stools and doesn’t seem very energetic. What should I do if my baby has diarrhea?
Answer
Hello, if a child is experiencing diarrhea, the first consideration is indigestion, enteritis, or possibly catching a cold. It’s crucial to identify the cause. If the baby is just having diarrhea with a good spirit, you can give them some Mommy Love or probiotic supplements, or administer symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication. If the diarrhea is severe and medication doesn’t work, immediate intravenous treatment may be necessary. Additionally, make sure to give your child plenty of warm water and gentle abdominal massage.
