My first "should I call the doctor" issue

DD has had mushy bm's for 3 days now...and quite often.  She has no other symptoms of an illness at all.  No fever, she's eating fine, playing fine, etc. I have NO idea what this is coming from.  How long before you call the doctor for something like that?  Frankly it's getting annoying.  I can't leave the house at night because she has to go to the bathroom all the time!

    I wouldn't call unless she is is in pain or has other symptoms. Can you have her eat some constipating foods?

    Put her on the brat diet. Is it hot where you live, has she been playing outside a lot. Maybe the heat and AC combo. Drinking a lot, or eating lots of fruit and juice. Maybe it is just a little bug. See if the Bananas Rice Apllesauce nd toast help.

    It's probably a virus that the dr. can't do anything about but ... I would call anyway, tell them her symptoms and ask at what point you should be concerned.  After 7 days of loose bm's, etc.  But really your gut will tell you when to be concerned, right now I would just be precautionary.
