Question: Hi my daughter is 6 weeks old and she keeps getting a low temperature of 35 and she keeps having green diarrhea and what seems to be tummy pain and vomiting. I have also had the tummy pain and green diarrhea with light headedness. I am taking paracetamol for myself for the pain and giving my daughter 1ml of oral suspension/calpol. What is it ? Should I take her to the hospital?

Brief Answer:
Diarrhea

Detailed Answer:
Hello. I just read through your question.
The bowel movements you describe are nothing to be overly concerned about. Even the fever of 35 is ok. What is most important is that the baby continues to feed as per usual and is not displaying prolonged irritability.
As long as this is the case, you can proceed with your regular routine. If the baby is experiencing prolonged irritability, I recommend consulting with your doctor.
