A. avoid self medications . if stool consistency is paste like or little watery nothing to worry about feed on demand, burp well , hold upright after feeds for atleast 10 to 15 minutes. if stools are excessivley watery or foul smelling better to consult with your doctor for examination and treatment, if bottle feeding maintain sterility as its a common source of infection

A. you should never give any medicine to the child without visiting a pediatrician first to be sure that whether the medication and the dosage of the medication will be correct for the baby or not

A. As your kid is small with regards to medication, I feel It's better to check with your doctor and follow their advise. That would be one of the best and safest option for your baby as of now. I can help with some home remedies, Maintain proper hygiene. Often clean babys toys. See to that they don't put everything onto mouth. Feed your baby well and more frequently. This will help your baby to recover soon. Also check your diet if your breastfeeding. If in bottle feed sterilise bottles well. Or try changing powder brand. If it continues for longer duration you should see doctor.
