A. For a 4-month-old baby experiencing loose motions for three days, it's important to monitor their condition closely. Here are some steps you can take: Steps to Follow 1. Hydration: Ensure your baby stays hydrated. Offer breast milk or formula frequently. If they are dehydrated, look for signs like dry mouth, fewer wet diapers, or lethargy. 2. Monitor Symptoms: Keep an eye on any other symptoms, such as fever, vomiting, or signs of dehydration. 3. Diet: If your baby is on formula, ensure it’s properly mixed and not too concentrated. Avoid giving any solid foods if they haven’t started solids yet. 4. Consult a Pediatrician: Since your baby is quite young, it’s best to consult your pediatrician to rule out any infections or underlying issues. They may recommend further tests or treatments. 5. Probiotics: Your doctor may suggest probiotics to help restore gut flora, but consult them first. When to Seek Immediate Help Signs of dehydration Blood in the stool Severe vomiting High fever Prompt medical attention can help address the issue effectively.
