Dear Royals, hello
Loose motion in thes age can be dangerous. So, immesdiately go to Emergency Department and get your grandchild examined by a Paeditrician and start treatment as adviced.
Excess loose stool can reult in dehydration, which needs immediate medical care.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
