HI.what your kid is having is an antibiotic associated diarrhea. If the baby as you say is better than previous symptoms - then you need not worry. Unless the kids having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry. You can use probiotics - especially Saccharomyces bollards. It is specifically for antibiotic associated diarrhea. Make sure the baby is well HY Chat Doctor. Regards -
