[|Human|] Hi,my 13 months baby is having a diarrhoea for more than a week. doctor suggest to change his normal formula milk to the special infant formula milk for diarrhoea.but his condition is remain the same. his stools is sticky,sometimes it is watery ad smells like spoiled egg. he also lose his appetite. he doesnt want to have any meals and for a time being,i just feed him with milk n biscuits. he has a bad mouth smells and restless sleep at night too..is he having a infantile diarrhea or what is the problem actually? thanx.
[|AI|]  Hello, If your baby does not have fever or vomiting, he is at the right age for toddlers diarrhea. The best way to determine if this is a problem or not is to check his weight. If he is losing weight, then he needs more evaluation.  If he is not losing weight, then you could adjust his diet and give it some time. Normal toddlers' diarrhea often takes a few weeks to resolve on its own. While you are waiting, I would not change his milk, but I'd make sure he is not getting fruit juice (the sorbitol and fructose can be hard to digest) and is getting some fatty foods to see if that slows down his stooling. Often at this age, a babies appetite will go up and down. Again, if his weight is OK, then I would follow his lead about his appetite. Don't force him to eat if he isn't hungry. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
