You most certainly need to get her in to see the doctor ASAP. 2 weeks is a long time to have diarrhea. Make sure you give her plenty of pedialyte to keep her hydrated. If it is just teeth, then the doctor will know but not all intestinal illnesses present with fever. Better safe than sorry.

Call her pediatrician.
You should never wait more than 4 days of diarrhea to seek medical attention...it could be several different things even if there no other symptoms, especially dehydration...usually pedialyte is recommended. Doctors say teething doesn't cause diarrhea, but I know it does back when my kids were teething, but not for 2 weeks.
Hope everything is good.

Keep her very hydrated. I think I'd call the pediatrician to see if she should be seen. I've actually never heard of diarrhea for 2 wks having anything to do with teething.

Your daughter must have just started on the cows milk. She may be developing an allergy to the dairy or something else. You may want to check with her pediatrician because diarrhea for that long is a sign that something is not is bothering her.

It probably is teething. My son had diarrhea a lot when he was teething. Sometimes even so bad he ended up with something called scald. (burns on the butt from diarrhea) Give her lots of liquids to replace it and she should be okay. Although if it doesn't stop sometime in the next week I'd take her to the doctor.

I think she needs to see the pediatrician...having diarrhea for 2 wks, I'd be concerned about dehydration.

diaorrhea for 2 weeks is a little long make sure you keep the fluids going as dehydration can be a problem but yes teething can have that effect. if it goes on much longer it is worth having her checked out to be sure she is not having other problems. Cheer and good luck with it all.

Teething does NOT cause diarrhea! Your daughter is SICK and needs to be taken to the doctor ... she may have a problem with the way she is 'digesting' her food. If you want to 'slow the diarrhea' a bit, feed her a BRAT diet ... NOTHING but 'banana, rice (white only), applesauce, and 'pekoe' tea.' But PLEASE TAKE HER TO THE DOCTOR ...your little girl NEEDS MEDICAL HELP!

i'm happy you will after hours and with a bit of luck will see yet another Dr. the subject is dehydration for her little physique and its accompanying electrolyte depletion . it must be her coping with the Gastro intestinal virus you all had or it must be some thing extra severe.( Bile from the liver reasons stool to be darker so absence of it might reason white stool) So attempt to no longer diagnose it your self yet stable for you for being on actual of the area now. additionally-carry this article you wrote to describe to Dr

A child with diarrhea that has lasted more than a couple of days is a serious condition because they can dehydrate rapidly. If you have not taken this child to a doctor, please do so immediately.
