Pedialyte?

Evelyn had her shots yesterday:(  she's acting just fine, but she had two diahrea diapers this morning and is running at 99.5, which is higher for her.  She usually runs around 97.5.  Can she have pedialyte?  She's not dehydrated, but I don't want it to get worse.  I thought of picking some up.  I don't feel the need to call the clinic because they warned me about this, but I forgot to ask about what to give her besides Tylenol.  Any ideas?  I can't remember if infants can have pedialyte or not.  TIA!

    When my LO got a virus, my doctor recommended pedialyte if she started getting diarrhea. 

    I would check with your doctor first but mine didn't have a problem with it.

  • I don't post a lot anymore, but my LO caught a virus, and Similac actually makes a formula for diarrhea. I EP, so we mixed it 50/50 with BM. Worked like a charm! Our pedi gave us two 8 oz cans on Tuesday.
