DR SHIWAJIRAO PATILGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Hello, your baby boy is 5 months old and he is having loose motions so give him ORS and econorm sachets two times a day and frequent breast feeding too
Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. if you are giving only breastfeeding then there is a possibility that slightly loose to semi solid stool may be present intermittently.
if you see that it is totally watery and also you are giving outside milk then it is advisable to get the child examined by the doctor to rule out agny digestion problem or any infection.
need of probiotics and zinc has to be evaluated.
in the meantime kindly continue breastfeeding to prevent dehyfdration.
you can give ors also if water loss is more
if there is blood in the stool then kindly meet the doctor immediately because it can be dysentery also.
