Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
It is most probably viral diarrhoea.
Diet - usual milk and ORS solution- which contains water, electrolytes and sugar in balanced form.
Usually it settles on its own and you need medical advice when---
1. child is not playful.
2. Urine output is less.
3. Frequency of stools increases and there is blood in the stools.
Take care
