Hi,welcome to healthcare magic forum.
Thank your for Your query.
It is not normal to change 10 diaper per day. It looks like there is some infection in stomach of your baby, it may be either bacterial, viral or parasitic. So better consult any pediatrician near by for the exact diagnosis & treatment.
I usually prescribe initially to my patients syrup-Oflox-OZ 2.5 ml two times in a day for 5 days. If it does not subside, get a stool examination done to find out the cause Or causative organism.
Wish your baby speedy recovery,
Thanks.
