My little boy is 4.
I have 4 kids and over the years they have all suffered the odd head cold or winter flu, or cough. But this one we have never seen before. My little one has really stinky, squirty pooh yesterday and today - he suddenly says- more poo is coming - but we don't get to the toilet in time - he says his tummy hurts and he has a slight fever.
Could he have eaten something bad? No-one else is sick - or did he not wash his hands properly? We are very strict with hand washing and even have a "pump" bottle of antiseptic hand wash gel at the kitchen bench. He is so miserable.

, sounds like hes picked up a tummy bug , don't worry about food but water is very important , it could be a bit of gastric bug .. thats what it sounds like to me ,, give him some tynoll ( dont know where your from ) for the fever .. and keep the water up , and if hes still the same tomorrow . i would take him to the doctors ... so its rest and water . if you feed him you are only feeding the bug ,, good luck , its not funny when the little ones are sick .. oh and the hand washing is important for the rest of the family as well .. hope hes better soon

Sounds to me like he just has a tummy bug, keep the fluids up and let it run it course if he isn't better in 48 hours more then take him the the doctor

Call the doctor. He could have caught a stomach bug or something worse. Good luck!

Poor little guy... make sure he stays hydrated until you see a pediatrician, otherwise you might have to run to the ER... good luck!
