Hi Doctor,My Baby is 12 days old and is suffering with motions from 4 days. Poo is yellow in color and very smelly and a bit watery. We have consulted two peds where they prescribed walamycin(colistin sulphate) 6 drops - 4 times a day and other doctor prescribed stodil (Loperamide) - 1/8 per day.  It doesnt look subsiding and still he is doing it more than 6 times a day. Kindly help
Hi...this is completely normal. Please do not worry at all. An active well growing and weight gaining baby is perfectly healthy. What your kid is having is not a diarrhea and is only a gastronomic reflux. It is quite common for babies of this age group t pass small amount of diarrhea or loose stools soon after feeds. This need not be treated as diarrhea and especially antibiotics are not indicated. 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. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Chat Doctor are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
