Question
My baby is a little over a year and a half old. For the past two days, he hasn’t eaten during the day, but he eats a little when he’s hungry at night! He suddenly has diarrhea during the day for the past two days, and last night and tonight! It happens in the middle of the night! And he’s asleep when it happens! He wakes up after he has diarrhea! What’s going on?
Answer
It could be that the baby has a gastrointestinal infection caused by catching a cold or consuming unclean food. Symptoms may include loss of appetite, nausea, and vomiting. The baby may wake up because of weak bowel movements at night. Pay attention to keeping warm, eat a light diet, and you can take oral probiotics and Montmorillonite powder for symptomatic treatment of diarrhea.
