It was SO bad.

Are y'all struggling with diaper rash ? We've kept him clean and dry and his bottom is still so so red I hate it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214842 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 21:51:38 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1214842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: really?!? Interesting. They've had diahrrea for over 2 weeks, so I was kind of relieved to have a reason. :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214790 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 21:17:00 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1214790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: most babies test positive for c diff. I don't test babies under a year unless there is a darn good reason. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214721 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 20:32:53 +0000 PrincessBaby 1214721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coacheswife123: I don't have any advice but I'm sorry your little dude is sick:( I hope he is at 100% asap:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214714 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 20:29:06 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1214714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coacheswife123: We've been through the same kind of thing for the last couple weeks, but just found out today (from a stool sample and lab work) that at least one of them has c diff, though the ped can't really figure out how they got it since they have't been on many antibiotics. All this to say, I totally sympathize about just wanting them to feel better! It's sucks. Hope LO feels better quickly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214638 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:43:29 +0000 pl0508 1214638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: great to know ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214610 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:29:57 +0000 MamaMoose 1214610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coacheswife123: bio Gaia was bought out by gerber. Their probiotics are now packaged as "gerber soothe colic drops" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214577 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 19:08:10 +0000 pl0508 1214577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: good to know !

(Walgreens generic capsules that I open and sprinkle on what they are eating)</p> <p>I usually get ones with Lactobacillus, because that's what I'm familiar with. I've never gotten one with sacchromyces.... but should be a similar mechanism. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214532 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 18:37:30 +0000 pl0508 1214532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: any experience with florastor kids probiotic ? We love bio Gaia drops but the pharmacy is out. I don't see an age indicator on the florastor kids packets - DS is almost 10 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214419 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 17:24:25 +0000 pl0508 1214419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: picking up some probiotics on my way home. fingers crossed they help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214364 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 16:52:42 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1214364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normal. Probiotics or a lot of yogurt can help repopulate the gut with normal flora so that absorption of nutrients can get back to normal. (It's probably not still the virus, but damage to the brush border of the intestines). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/persistent-diarrhea-after-virus#post-1214358 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 16:50:38 +0000 pl0508 1214358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS had a stomach bug (vomiting) on Thursday and Friday. He is still dealing with diarrhea almost a week later. Normal? </p> <p>He has no fever and is playful although a little clingy. He's having wet dipes and taking his bottles and solids fine so I'm not concerned about dehydration. Yesterday almost every time he had his diaper changed there was a little poo in there. Just tiny squirts. Today he hasn't had that but has had more substantial poops in terms of volume but they are still runny. </p> <p>His little bum bum is so so red even though we are changing him the instant he is wet or dirty. i'm going to do a baking soda bath tonight. </p> <p>I also dropped a dipe off with his ped for a stool sample. I just want his tummy back to normal. </p> <p>Anyone else deal with this? </p>
