Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query your baby have symptoms of fever and loose motion which seems to be due to acute gastroenteritis which is a type of viral infection. It could be due to electrolyte imbalance in body. Need not worry. I would suggest you to give proper rest to child. You should have plenty of fluids to rely Chat Doctor.  You should give child diet rich in fibers and proton pump inhibitors. Furthermore, you should give diet rich in multivitamins. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done to find out underlying cause of your condition whether bacterial or viral and start treatment accordingly. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-5 days. You should do tepid sponging as well. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
