Baby Diarrhea

When baby don't pass motion, you get worried. When baby passes more motion than usual, you also get worried.. .. hai..being parents you just get worried from the day the sperm enters the ovary..

so little shane is passing more motion than usual... about 4 episodes of loose stools in one day...tendency to pass motion everytime during feed (usually is 1 motion every 2 days). This probably means that most of his intake has become output.. so our concern would be his hydration. More so, his input has reduced by about 20ml..

anyway it would be good to encourage him to finish up his feed and hopefully, the diarrhea can pass out his virus, and he's all well and good.

Thought this is a good site to check out on baby fever..: http://children.webmd.com/guide/infant-fever

Our only concern about fever is a typical parent concern: whether the fever heat will cause any problems to the brain.. as it has been reassured by the doctor that it wouldn't, it is important to identify the cause for the fever.. i guess serious conditions like meningitis can be very serious..that can affect the brain!!.. but otherwise it is good to exclude out serious conditions, and know that if it is common virus, your baby will get stronger after each episode! :)
