Looking for a bit of advice about DD, who is 2.4. She's had diahorrea for about 5 days. First day she had 4 episodes, next day and day after she had 2, then she had a gap of 2 days with no poos at all. Today she has had 2 episodes. She has complained 3 times that her tummy hurts, but I don't think it's been that bad because she almost instantly distracted herself by seeing something interesting that she wanted to look at. At the beginning it smelled pretty rank, but now it smells 'normal'. She has had a slight cold in the last week or so. Otherwise, she is absolutely fine Not off her food, completely like herself, no temperature, no rash, no vomiting. Drinking well and having plenty of wet nappies. Her molars have just started to come in and I did wonder whether that had anything to do with it. She is cows' milk protein allergic and that manifests itself as gastric problems, but I would expect to have vomiting too and I've checked with nursery and they are quite sure she hasn't had any dairy products.
So, I don't know what to do with her! Should I take her to the GP? What should I be feeding her? I've been trying to offer a bland diet, but she's pretty fussy at the best of times.
Would be grateful for any thoughts/reassurance!
