My diarrhea nanaman son ko, dinala namin siya ng 3am sa doctor dahil iyak ng iyak masakita ng tyan at 3times ng nagpoops at watery talaga,may kasama pang fever,sabi ng pedia gastro daw,binigyan lang kami ng pedialytes at pangfever..di naman daw kailangang gamutin ang diarrhea kasi BRAT diet daw ang kailangang gawin..kaso bakit sa nasesearch ko at nababasa ko pag ang gastro ay cause ng bacteria dapat nagtatake ng antibiotics ang bata,last month kasi nagsuffer din siya sa ganon at nagtake ng antibiotics pero walang fever last month,tapos tinest pa ang stool niya,kagabi sabi no need daw basta observe daw muna??? kaya tuloy di ako mapakali....

sis, dati din nag diarrhea yung baby ko ng watery talaga at as in "bumubulwak" talaga yung paglabas ng poop, tas may fever din sya nun, sinugod namin sya sa ER pero sabi no need daw na gamutin kasi wala naman daw bacteria or anything wrong dun sa fecalisys nya, basta daw laging hydrated si baby eh no need to worry, basta pedialyte lang every poop nya, hydrasec one sachet a day saka pedzinc 1ml a day.. tas pag may fever eh every 4 hours ang inom ng paracetamol.. ayun, after 24 hours daw tas ganun parin yung poop nya eh i-te-test na daw yung blood para makita kung ano talaga problem, tas ayun after 24 hours ganun parin sya pero wala ng fever, pinatest namin yung blood tas ok naman daw kaya di na sya pina-confine, sabi viral daw yung reason ng pagtatae nya kaya di kailangang gamutin at kusa namang mawawala... tas ayun after a day ulit eh okay na si baby parang walang nangyari.. ... basta sis, continue mo lang yung pedialite kasi important talaga yun, saka sabi pala ni doc eh ang pagpapainom ng pedialite eh dahan dahan, use dropper daw instead of putting it in bottle, di ko alam yung logic pero ganun nga, matrabaho pero ganun ginawa ko, we use dropper tas parang play time lang ang pagpapa-inom ng pedialite para makadami sya ng inom... basta observe mo sya sis, kung tingin mo active parin naman si baby eh wag ka mag worry masyado, pero pag iba na eh much better na ipa-confine na kesa manghina sya lalo... sana maging ok na baby mo sis...

Pwede rin ang buco juice kung ayaw talaga ng Pedialyte.

ano result ng fecalysis ng son mo? bacterial ba caused ng diarrhea? cause if it's bacterial, usually needed ng antibiotics. but if it's viral (i.e. intestinal flu with symptoms like fever and lbm), no need. like you shouldnt be giving antibiotics if you have the common cold since it's viral and not bacterial

[marssie]

thanks mga sissies sa reply ^,^^&^^^...

yun nga eh, di tinest pupu niya sabi kasi no need na raw basta idiet lang daw at gamot lang sa fever ang binigay sa akin..

Ngayon di na siya nilalagnat, pero ganon pa rin pupu niya, but i always make it sure na di siya madedehydrate, binibigyan ko rin siya paunti unti ng apple and banana.. Pag di pa rin nagbago after 3days, lipat nanaman ako pedia... hay..

help naman naka 3x na mag poop yung 3 year old son ko. called his pedia na and pedialyte yung ipapatake ko daw. sleep pa c baby ngayon pero nagpabili na ko kay yaya ng pedialyte. yung poop nya kanina yellow (usually eto naman yung color ng poop nya) then yung pangatlo na medyo dark green/black yung color. alarming ba to mga sis?

[grumpybear]

why dont you have a fecalysis done to rule out parasites/amoeba?

[maruchi]

this morning lang nag start, ok lang kaya observe ko muna for 24 hours or necessary na talaga ipa fecalysis?

[grumpybear]

whatever you feel comfortable with.

[Bash]

^^according to my daughter's pedia, dark/greenish poop can be a sign of amoebiasis. better have your son's poop tested sis. yung sa baby ko, i thought it was just ordinary diarrhea or irritated tummy pero when i had her stool tested, that's when the doctor was able to confirm na may amoebiasis nga.

[maruchi]

^ok na yung baby ko sis 2 days ago nag pop sya 5x then yesterday and today once na lang and ok na yung color. yung dark poop nya yata dahil sa chocolate yun kase kumain kame and di ko alam na nag diarrhea sya kase once pa lang sya naka poop noon and di ko nakita na medyo liquid pala... thank god sana um-ok na talaga sya.

Hello.
My 21 month old girl has been having diarrhea too that started last monday, she's very masigla and active, no sign of stomach pains, basta poop lang ng poop ng matubig, pakonti konti at explosive. I texted her pedia, she told me to just have a stool exam, no bacteria/parasite present sa results, so she told me to just replenish with pedialite kada poop, 30ml pedialite eveyrtime she poops.
1st day talagang 15 times nag poop, the next day naging 5 poop, then me days na 3  poop lang, 8 days had passed and now she still poops 4-5x pero pasty na , mala - laing ang consistency, but she's still very active, even eats well, di ko na sya pina-check sa pedia because i have read that viral diarrheas just gets better on its own. Pero now yung isa ko pang anak nag start mag diarrhea na din! contagious daw [textspeak!] ito.
I let her drink pedialite, eats lugaw, and rice w/soup, apples, and loaf bread.
I plan to repeat her stool exam today.
How do i know kung rotavirus ito?

Hi, where can you buy ORS and oresol? are these the same?

My son has been pooping several times a day na. But normal naman sa kanya ang 2-4X a day na poop. But last night nag start yung medio watery. I thought dahil tira lang nung last solid poop nya nung early evening pero today nagtuloy tuloy na.  I gave him erceflora this morning and afternoon, pero ganun pa rin. No fever, very active, same appetite pa rin, ate solids and drank 5 bottles of milk.  His molars and canines on his upper set of teeth are coming out kasi so iniisip namin ng husband ko baka tied to teething kasi medio slimy like saliva yung poop. But it's yellow, parang nung infant sya. Tomorrow, papa BRATTY diet (but not the tea siguro) ko sya and more erceflora. I want to find out where I can buy ORS or oresol and what does it do. Thanks.

For my toddler when she gets diarrhea:

--lactose-free milk (Enfagrow LF na sya kahit on days na walang diarrhea; medyo every other month sya nagkakaroon so I switched her to LF completely)
--hold all vitamins except Zinc
--Erceflora probiotic
--BRAT (if she will eat)
--ORS (but I can't make her drink this talaga)

Napansin ko parang hindi pa kaya ng tummy nya ang ordinary bottled water kaya I boil Wilkins for her water at home (since birth ito) and give Dr Edwards when going out.

For maintenance, she drinks Dutchmill.  Ayaw ng Yakult e.  She used to take Acidophilus (probiotic).

hi mommy DV, i have question about Acidophilus, san po kayo nakakabili nun? capsule po ba siya o milk...?

[DV]

^We got ours from my daughter's pediatric gastroenterologist. It's in capsule form; bubuksan tapos ihahalo sa milk yung powder. I'm sure there are different brands available in local drugstores; just ask for prescription from your pedia.

[grumpybear]

diege, you can also find it at Healthy Options. No prescription needed.

[DV]

Right, it's also available at Healthy Options. It would be good, though, to let your pedia know before giving your child supplements so s/he can advise you of the proper dose and possible side effects.

Safe ba ang Imodium for kids na may diarrhea? Nabasa ko kasi na "Imodium is safe and it is the only approved over-the-counter drug for treating kids with diarrhea." Yung pamangkin ko kasi lagi sumasakit ang tyan at watery yung poop nya so hint namin diarrhea yun. Lactose intolerant kasi siya eh. Please advise po. Thanks! 

[mariasans]

Safe naman Imodium sis, pero sa toddler talaga ha, like 3 years and above yata. Pero better ask pa rin a doctor pero so far nirerecommend naman ng pharmacist yan.OTC naman kasi. Okay siya sa 6 year old ko eh. Better yet, keep your pamangkin hydrated na lang by giving lots of fluids and juices.
