what is best for baby diarhria?

Question

my 1 year old has loose motions and is teething what can i do?

Answer 1

Answer 2

A lot of times people in general will get diarrhea because of not having enough water in their system because the bowels are regulated by hydration... so try some pedialite. Also try some apples, they are full of pectin a natural source of fiber. Some blackberry juice or a spoonfull of blackberry jam decreases the ammount of secretions from the intestinal lining therefore less poopoo---it's and Italian thing my greatgreatgrandma used to do. Hope this helps a bit...and of course if all else fails see your doc! Good luck!

Answer 3

That is something that usually happens when teething. If it gets too bad contact your family doctor.
Diaper rash may develop that can cause small amounts of bleeding so make sure you have a good cream on hand like peneten I think that is what it is called anyways.
I noticed the pedialite comments but is usually recommended for dehydration and little ones will normally take it.
Good Luck!

Answer 4

Diarrhea naturally comes with teething as does fever. Pedialyte is the best thing to give baby. It will make sure baby stays hydrated. If it lasts longer than a week consult your physician.

Answer 5

My baby is one year and her bowel movements are still pretty loose and diarrhea like I don't think that there is anything wrong with that unless he\she is having lots of them. If you are concerned about it or you think the baby might have the flu or something take her\him to the hospital they will help. or even call your local drug store and talk with the pharmacist they can help

Answer 6

Ah the teething. My baby is going through that too.

I give her some pedialite to help for the loss of fluid. Other than that there isn't much you can do.

Answer 7

Had the same problem. Nothing really helped to slow down the diarhia. To make it easier on our children, we used mylanta (or another liquid antacid). When we would change them, instead of putting powder on their hineys we would put the antacid. It helped to reduce the pain when they would "go" again. There was little to no rawness when the diarhia did stop.

This was recommended to my sister by the ER doc she took her son to 7 yrs. ago when his diarhia was REALLY bad. I tried it the first time my twins had it and have used it ever since.

Answer 8

My son had a bad cause of diarrhea and ended up in the emergency department dehydrated, they told me to cut all fat out of his diet, including milk, cheese, butter, ham, junk food etc. Only offer fruit, veges, lean meat and things like that. My sons diarrhea had stopped within hours, then after a few days i returned him to his normal diet and the diarrhea returned so i cut out all fat for a few more days and it stopped completely.

Good luck and i hope this helps!!!

Answer 9

Answer 11

When teething,that happens,they get fevers and the works.Just make sure that you are always prepared for a messy diaper no matter where you may be going.Also,make sure he constantly is getting liquids so he doesnt dehydrate.
