Pediatrician,  's  Response
Above symptoms indicate gastrointestinal tract infection. Commonest cause is viral infection. It can be rotavirus as well.other causes are bacterial infection, food intolerance. Treatment given to your baby is correct. You can add enterogermina and antiemetic for vomiting. Maintain good hydration. Motion takes 5-7 days to stop. In case of repeated vomiting, frequent watery loose stools and decreased urine output you need to consult pediatrician immediately. Don't give fruit juices or sweetened water or drinks.
