I am sending disposable diapers and wipes to daycare tomorrow! I hope they are understanding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/antibiotics-and-the-runs#post-681116 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 23:17:57 +0000 78h2o 681116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm - I wonder if my LO's recent increase in BMs could be because I am on antibiotics (and nursing).I hadnt been able to figure it out because she looks like she feels fine buy went from 1x/1-2 days to 4x/day - wonder if that's why? Will have to look into it. </p> <p>Anyway, sorry for the tangent. Yeah, I'd probably let them know. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/antibiotics-and-the-runs#post-681029 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 21:17:19 +0000 betsyboop 681029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with the above responders, I think if you tell day care to expect loose stools due to antibiotics, they should understand! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/antibiotics-and-the-runs#post-681022 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 21:07:38 +0000 MamaMoose 681022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely tell day care that it's a side effect of the meds and not a stomach virus. Keep her hydrated and try to give her lots of yogurt... That should help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/antibiotics-and-the-runs#post-680965 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 20:19:27 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 680965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yea i would just explain to them that she's on antibiotics and that it's a normal side effect. is she on probiotics? that should help with the diarrhea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/antibiotics-and-the-runs#post-680907 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 19:26:44 +0000 autumnlove 680907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO has an ear infection and started amoxicillin on Friday. She hasn't had a fever since then but has 1-2 diarrhea diapers a day. Her Dr. warned us that diarrhea is a common side effect of the antibiotic and not to be concerned.</p> <p>My daycare has a 3 diarrhea diapers and you are out for the day policy...should I just tell them what the Dr. said? We really can't miss work tomorrow... </p>
