What Causes Increased Bowel Movements?
My 7 year old son has had a marked increase in bowel movements. From one a day to 6 or 7. Started with a big stomach ache. Then he just seems to go every couple of hours. Changed from soft to hard. Greenish urine slightly cloudy. No fever. No vitamins. No food changes. Normal activity. Normal sleeping

I can relate with all the other symptoms as they are caused by a stomach virus. However, I am not sure you got the urine colour right, as there are no descriptions of a greenish urine in medical literature as being due to ANY cause. I think you should feed him normally, and take her to give him plenty of water with electrolytes to prevent dehydration. He does not need any antibiotic. Just wait it out for a few more days and he should be okay.
