Hi
Thanks for writing to Health Care Magic.
Your baby is having diarrhea which is viral in nature and settles in few days.
With any infective process appetite is decreased.
Do not worry about it.
Give oral rehydration solution after each loose stool,give coconut water,lemonade,buttermilk,curd.
Give probiotic like lactobaccilus for 2 to 3 days.
2 times in 6 hrs loose stool is normal, but there should be passage of urine not more than 8 hours. baby will take solid also after acute infection recovered. and pleasec write us about how you feed your baby.
