Pediatrician 's  Response
the loose motions will take some time to settle. Give him soft diet and water plus ORS, try to keep him well hydrated with fluids. Do not give any medicine to stop stool, it can be dangerous some time. But if he is not taking fluids properly and seems dry then you should consult doctor.
