Okay, totally TMI but when is the...

diarrhea supposed to stop??!?!?!

I am sorry for the TMI but this has been going on since Monday ... and it's now Saturday. Chat Icon Chat Icon

She has developed a little tiny bit of an appetite, and ate a little bit at breakfast, not much at lunch but is munching on a cracker right now...

and she's taking the rice milk bottles if we put 1 oz of regular milk in to give it a familiar taste ----

but after 5 days of diarrhea I've just had enough! I want it to stop and get my regular little girl back.

Any idea how much longer this can go on for?!?! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Chat Icon That seems like a long time... I had the stomach virus and the diarrhea lasted about 2-3 days Chat Icon Can you give her some Children's Pepto or something like that? I always stay with the BRAT diet when they have diarrhea" Bananas, Rice, Apples and Toast. Hope she's better soon! Chat Icon

The doc said not to give her any OTC meds since she thinks it was rotavirus .... just to be persistent with the fluids.

BRAT -- never heard of that! Too bad she won't eat any of them! She's so picky and this has made her even more picky!!

At least it's down to like 2 times a day as opposed to 5-6. Hopefully after this weekend they'll be an improvement!

DD had a stomach virus that they thought was rotavirus but never confirmed it.

She had diarrhea for 10 days.

My DD has had it for week now as well. Dr. said to give the rice and banana as well. I feel so bad for her. I guess all we can do is wait it out.
