A. Loose motion most of the time is because of some infection which could be viral or bacterial and in such case it is associated with symptoms like fever along with vomiting and loss of appetite . supportive treatment is very necessary where proper hydration should be maintained by giving ORS along with that probiotic can be given like enterogermina or econorm ivn a proper dose . Antibiotics has their role only if it is bacterial infection . for this doctor guidance is necessary .

A. Ur Baby is too small right now so you cannot obviously stop giving milk to the child so you can consult your doctor and when these medicines start giving a lactose free milk to the child because regular milk increases the amount of lose motion so till the time your child is suffering with diarrhoea try to give lactose free milk to the child
