Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your baby have symptoms of diarrhea which seems to be due to disturbance of electrolytic balance of body and it could be due to systemic disturbances such as bacterial or viral infection , parasitic infection, food intolerance, food allergy, and inflammatory bowel disease. Need not to worry. You should start giving oral rehydrating solution to child. I would suggest you to consult pediatrician for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics along with proton pump inhibitors. You should eat light and non spicy food. You should give child mashed banana's. Avoid giving any outside food to child. Give proper rest to child.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
