Brief Answer:
Nothing serious will happen - please be on look out for diarrhea

Detailed Answer:
Hi.....nothing serious will happen. But, please be on look out for diarrhea.

Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
