Diarrhea in infant? Anything I can do to help?
DS has had diarrhea all day...No fever, but seems congested too. I searched and found old threads that suggested the BRAT diet, but does this apply to infants too? He is 6 months and usually does 3 foods a day in addition to bottles, but normally I avoid banana and rice as per the ped. b/c he is normally constipated. Should I go w/ BRAT for a 6 month old? Thank you, I feel awful for my little guy.

When this happened to DS at 6 months, we cut all solids and put him on soy milk and pedialyte for a few days.
I hope he feels better!

poor thing. 
teeth, maybe?
If that happened w/ my DS, i'd feed him rice cereal and bananas, because just like Will, they normally constipate him.

Thanks I think it may be a cold--he is also really congested. He didn't have it when his first 2 teeth came in. He didn't even want to eat his yogurt, which he loves. So hard when they are sick (and esp. when we have to leave to go to stupid work )
