Pedialytes for a 10 month old?

My LO has been sick, and now I am, too. I've been drinking lots of water to stay hydrated, but I guess not enough because after nursing my my LO 4x last night, he still woke up super dry. Not even a hint of blue on his diaper. Can I give him pedialyte to hydrate? I'm just worried he'll become dehydrated.

You can just give water with a splash of 100% juice in it too. No need for fancy drinks. Yes sounds dehydrated so keep the liquids coming.

Yes, you can give him pedialyte. Since he's sick, it'll really help rehydrate him and give him a boost to help make him feel better. If he doesn't want to drink it, you can get the pedialyte ice pops. That way, he can suck on it, and if he's also teething, the ice will help. I still get my daughter those, and she loves them.
