Uh Oh....Diarrhea!


Yikes, you just removed your little ones diaper and he redecorated the adjacent wall with diarrhea! This happens. Please note that it is very important to consult with your Pediatrician if your baby has diarrhea for more than 2 days or longer. Your little one may become dehydrated.

There are foods that can help your baby when a spell of diarrhea hits. Just remember the word B.R.A.T: Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast. These for beauties are fabulous in relieving diarrhea. There are others such as white potato and pasta. But the best really are bananas, rice, applesauce and toast.

The yummiest recipe I use when little M had diarrhea was Banana Cream Puree. Here’s the recipe:

BANANA CREAM PUREE

1/4 of a very ripe banana

Prepared baby rice cereal (if diarrhea is bad, do not prepare the cereal with milk, just water/formula or breastmilk)

Cinnamon for taste

In a blender toss in banana and puree. And cereal and puree a bit more. If the puree is a bit thick add more liquid.

Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top.

Serve nice and warm.
