Q My baby is suffering from loose motions from six days, he is 17 months old. No Vomiting and he stools 3 times a day.
Diarrhoea is common in young children. Has he been getting better these last few days? If yes, then only supportive care at home will suffice. Give him plenty of fluids and rehydrating solutions. You must ensure the baby is not dehydrated. Give him easy to digest home-cooked food like soups, porridge, rice etc. If you have noticed no improvement in his condition or if the child has become dull, then you must visit his pediatrician at the earliest.
