very loose poops

in April 2012 Moms

she WAS having clearish gel poops for a few days, but is slowly improving. baby is 9 mos and doc said last week it was probably a virus. her grump factor has improved completely and she isn't in pain any longer when she poops or toots.  well we've still got some pretty loose stuff going on. we've been doing the brat diet. so i've tried bananas, applesauce, and rice. we have also tried strained carrots. she can not have toast because i am celiac. i think the bananas made her poops a little slimy instead of firming them up.

does anyone have further suggestions? 

thanks!

    Unfortunately it sounds like something you might have to just wait out. When did you start the brat diet? It sometimes takes a while for it to kick in.

    last night i started her favorite, sweet potato mixed with ground beef. i'm giving up on the brat diet! we'll see what diapers look like today! this morning, she worked out the rest of the applesauce and carrots, so next diaper will tell us!

    sorry, I wanted to reply, but my answer and only thing I got in my repetoire is brat diet, which you were already doing.  You could also avoid the PS's, which is what you use to combat constipation.  PS's= peaches, peas, sweet potato, squash, strawberry's, pears etc...

    good luck!

    My doc also said yogurt may help bind them up a bit... It honestly seemed to do the trick for us... I never knew yogurt did that.

    on the yogurt note.. we have 2% greek fage.. think that would do the trick, or do i really need to buy the baby yogurt? she hasn't had any dairy yet!
