Advice on Diarrhea in a 2 Year Old

My son just turned 2. As an infant he had terrible gas from regular formula and had to be on soy. Once we put him on milk at 1 he seemed fine with it. In may he had a bout of diarrhea and vomiting. He only threw up at night and he had diarrhea 6 times a day. This lasted for 20 days. The doctors did tests and said they didn't see anything wrong with him and reffered us to a gastro but by the time we got in the symptoms were gone and he said to wait. Now he has had diarrhea for a week and a half again. The regular peds say to call the...

Baby and Runny Nose

My 6mos old latley has a runny nose I think that she has some algerys but when I ask her doctor about it she said that she is to young for them. I don't think she has a cold because she is not showing any signs of one. Just a runny nose. And she is also teething. If anyone can help please let me know.

Breastfed Infant Is Suffering from Constipation

I was wondering how any of you have dealt with an infant suffering from constipation. I have a two month old who was going No. 2 normally up until a few days ago. The first time he went once in a period of over 36 hours and has not gone since (going on 48 hours). I hear that it is very uncommon for a breastfed babies to be constipated. My first son never suffered from this. I contacted my doctor who said to insert a thermometer up you know what to help him out. I feel like there should be a less painful/uncomfortable options. Any...

Son with Diarrhea

My son is 7 months old and is having his first bout with diarrhea. He's still eating and still having a wet diaper, though not as often as he usually does. But he is pooping out pretty much everything that he's eating. I am wondering if anyone has used imodium on a child his age before. I have also heard that yogurt really helps but I was wondering if anyone else had tried this. I've got a call into his doctor but he hasn't called me back yet. Any info would be helpful.

What to Do with a 3 Yr. Old with a Possible Yeast Infecton?

My daughter has had what seems to be diaper rash down there, but she doesn't wear diapers, so I'm suspicious. She's complained of itching for about 4-5 days...we've tried various ointments but it doesn't seem to be getting better. Her entire area is red, inside and out. Normally, I'd take her to the doctor right away, but with the flu scare, I'm a bit anxious to take her in to a germ-filled waiting room for such a minor issue. Has anyone had a similar experience with their toddlers? Any advice? Thanks!

Baby Rash and Fever

I changed my baby's diaper yesterday (8pm) and saw that she had a major rash-sort of spot like and very sensitive and painful. I had changed her diaper about 2 hrs prior and she was fine. About 30 minutes before I changed her, I gave her homemade turkey and veggie pureed. At about 2am in the morning she started crying and when I took her she was at 100.1 (shes usually 97.9), so I gave her Tylenol and it went down to 98.7. Today, she's still at 99.7 and still has a rash, but she's eating well and playing. I feel awful. Should I be...
