DS has been having diarrhea for the past 2 days. He's normally a 3-4 day pooper so to change his diaper 5+ times on one day is very worrisome. He refuses pedialyte (I have to water it down) but will sip water and soy milk. How can I make pedialyte more palatable?
I know what BRAT means: Banana, Rice, Applesauce and Toast
But is that all I feed him all day?? I understand the bananas, applesauce and toast part. As far as rice is concerned, is it just plain white/brown rice? Nothing else?
He's already eating bananas every morning with either Cream of Wheat or oatmeal. He also gets yogurt everyday (either soy or full fat). His meals are pretty varied: lots of pasta, chicken, veggies.... so to cut it down to just BRAT seems drastic to me.
Wouldn't he get hungry??
