A. Loose motion occurs 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 seen in the babies because children have a tendency to put their dirty fingers into the mouth or anyanb other object due to irritation in the gums.

A. try to identify the reason and treat it accordingly. you may give more of water and other healthy liquids such as fruit juices, ORS etc. Give warm water every morning, include a banana daily. Include more foods that contain high levels of fibre. Fiber rich foods can help in faster recovery. Alos ensure baby doesn't get dehydrated.
