Hi thanks for asking question.
here is some advise for yr baby.
Your baby should be exclusively breast feed up to 6 month.
Here if stool frequency is more then 20 times as you said give yr baby more water with ors to maintain hydration.
Weaning started only after 6 month
No need of other additional treatment.
Diarrhea in child mostly due to rota virus.
Still not recover then we will use antibiotic.
Don't worry.
Take yr baby's pulse and skin elasticity checking every 4 hour.
Thanks.
