A. Hello , your baby boy is 5 months old and she has passed 6 times loose motions so give her ORS and frequent breast feeding and econorm sachets two time a day for three days

A. Loose motions may occur due to some infection or if chronic than could be some malabsorption.
Initially you can give zinc supplement for 2 weeks and probiotic like econorm sachet for 3 days for two times a day.
For any specific treatment with antibiotics,consult your doctor and maintain proper hydration .
can give khichdi,sabudana , mashed potato ,ripe banana, poha if the baby is above 6 months of age,
maintain proper hydration by giving plenty of fluids. if there is any stomach ache in a baby above one year of age drotin ds syrup can be given under medical advice.usually during the teething phase loose motion is commonly jjuseen in the babies because children have a tendency to put their dirty fingers into the mouth or any other object due to irritation in the gums.

A. hi
usually it is normal among breastfed babies to pass watery or runny poop.
but if your child passes stool in too much watery consistency with mucus and foul smell then you should consult your pediatrician.
