Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Your little girl is likely to be suffering from Viral Gastroenteritis .

You could keep her well hydrated with Oral Rehydration solution ,coconut water and butter milk.In acute diarrhoea there is transient lactose intolerance hence the intake of milk should be reduced.

In case of your child too encourage curds and buttermilk.However if your child wants only Breast milk then you could continue it but avoid top milk.

Bye
Take care
