Stomach bug? How do I know?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
My 10mo has been eating solids for a month or so now...and his poop is usually pretty solid and once a day. Yesterday he pooped twice and the second time it was really runny. It was very diarrhea like. Same thing this morning. Other than that he seems pretty okay. I haven't changed his diet (no new foods) and he still nurses pretty constantly.

How do I know if he's sick?

Has he been eating a lot of solids? I'd say time will tell. My DD2 had a stomach bug a couple weeks ago and had liquid poo very frequently during the day and nigh. She wasn't eating much solids during that time, but was nursing a ton. I just made sure to nurse her often and offer food and water and she was fine.

I would just keep a eye on him and hopefully it will pass soon. It limit fruit and fruit juice as it can cause loose stools but otherwise wait it out.

He's not big on fruit...he loves Ritz Crackers and Kipper Snacks...lol

He's also been really clumsy lately, could that be related?

my ds does this sometimes and hasn't had any other issues, with being partially solid fed and partially breastfed I assumed it was normal. If it continues I might start to worry though
