Babies: 9 - 12 Months

1 year old sick...advice

Although I have already made a doctors appointment for later this afternoon, I wanted to get some advice about my sick 1 year old. He has some some diarrheah (usually 2 explosive diapers a day - sorry if TMI) since Sunday and has recently developed a mild fever (hovering between 100 and 101). Not much of an appetite either, but otherwise he is ok. He isn't crying or whining a lot and is sleeping more than usual. I have given him some pedialite to help with any dehydration and have been trying to follow the BRAT diet (Bannanas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast), but I wonder how long before this would typicall clear up and if there is anything else I can be doing in the mean time.

  • My DS is going through the same thing, though he is vomiting too. According to what my pedi told me to do, you're doing all the right things. Let me know if yours tells you anything new/different. Hang in there and I hope your little one feels better soon!
