Anyone know what could help with diarrhoea? It’s definitely diarrhoea bc the poor boy woke up through the night upset, so I popped him next to me to sleep and I literally heard him poop, I checked and obviously changed him. Last night I didn’t realise at it wasn’t a lot or smelly and he got really sore on his bottom and balls 😞
We have started fresh milk but I boil it for him, idk my mum says that’s better? But he still has formula here and there, I’m not sure what to do pls help a mama out. Thank you in advance 💕

the brat diet, bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast but it’s basically any bland food to just help settle an upset stomach and help with diarrhea, also for his diaper rash any diaper cream with 40% zinc oxide should help heal and prevent it, give him lots of fluids to keep him hydrated since he’s having diarrhea, and if you think the whole milk is the issue try giving him a lactose free one, i give my daughter the fair life whole milk and it’s lactose free, hope this can help but don’t forget to consult with your pediatrician first, i hope he feels better soon 🩷🎀

Is he teething?

If he's recently started cows milk it's likely related. There's no need to boil it though, it's already pasteurised. Does he have any other dairy in his diet? Cheese or yoghurt?

I second the BRAT diet !! ✨💕

If you can get him to eat a few of these four things or even one of these four things, do it !! Alternate in the three meals of the day. I also second pushing fluids !! .. I personally will grab Pedialyte in the baby aisle and dilute it with water. The electrolytes will help baby and help make pushing fluids enjoyable for him 💯💖
If diarrhea lasts longer than two days, I’ll incorporate purdue chicken nuggets so baby body has some protein.
You should bring baby to the pediatrician just for a check up to make sure nothing is seriously wrong. Check baby’s temperature and see if he has a fever and just keep checking during this “diarrhea phase”.
The baby cream, “Boudreaux’s Butt Paste Max Strength” has always worked best for me:) .. it’s in a red bottle with a baby on the front ✨💓🌹
Also, don’t go back and forth between formula and fresh milk. You must pick one so you’re not going back and forth,

BRAT diet and kids dyralite to get fluid and salts back into him x

Start him with smaller amounts of milk and still give his formula. You want to introduce the other milk gradually
