Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 7 month old has had at diarrhea for the past 2 1/2 days and will barely eat any kind of baby food and will take a bottle but doesn t drink it all. He s also kind of fussy but has no fever. Should I take him to the er or wait for his family doctor tomorrow?
You should know that babies can get dehydrated very easily. As he is not taking enough fluids, I recommend going to the ER for a physical exam and some blood lab tests.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
