Asking For Self, Female 27, lahore
my boy is 6 months masha Allah. As i am a working mom we were doing great with combination feed (80% mother feed) i started weaning (mashed banana mixed with breast milk) he got diarrhea. Its 6 days now. He is pooping like 12 13 times n gets hungry again and again.. n become fussy n irritable on breast.. to prevent his dehydration i have to give him bottle. As 7,8 oz with a dropper or syringe is not easy for a working lady and a fussy kid 😣😣 my concern is, would i b able to feed him again ??? He is feeding twice, thrice in a day directly from breast that too for 6 7 mins only. (um giving him enterogermina and zinc sulphate)
Increase semi solid food to 5 to 6 times continue breastfeed give ORS use boil water if no relief consult child specialist
Whatever you are doing is great...continue same medications, give more ORS and feed breastfeed as much as you can.....
give yougurt and mashed banana, give about 4 to 5 meals of semisolids and dont worry for the stools if not too much loose...
keep good hygiene of hands and feeding bottle mostly viral infections at this age gets well without any medication.....
so wait and give more to eat and mother feed, minimum formula milk plz
