A. it is very important to maintain good hydration right now. initially give curd and buttermilk curd with soft cooked rice, mashed banana are good for stomach give frequent soft semi liquid foods ones which are preferred by the child like light khichadi, thick soup. for hydration keep feeding ors after every stool and can give coconut water use Clean safe water for preparation of food maintain proper hygiene hand wash with soap after before feeding also for baby

A. continue prescribed medications. if you have introduced any new food, skip it for time being. maintain good hydration. curd, buttermilk help in maintaining good intestinal bacteria.  keep a close watch on urine color, hydration, maintain good oral intake.  if child appears drowsy, blood in stools or not feeding well then consult your paediatrician. maintain good hygiene while feeding your baby. hope this helps.
