diarrhoea - my dd 7 has had this for a week... slowly improving... but what can i do to help

[elasticbandstand]

what can i give her to eat?
she is starving.
just started diarolyte, at a protest. thought she was better.. but no.
did try tuna and pasta,
she shouldnt have milk i know

You could try some toast with a scrape of butter if she won't eat it dry. Poor little thing, nothing worse.

Have posted before Italians sware by the white diet for stomach upsets. So White rice, chicken, apple etc. I make a fresh chicken soup ( boil chicken bits with veg onion, carrot, potato, celery, etc in , strain off any fat) and put rice in it.
Have you tried digestive biscuits or other dry biscuits ?
Also make my own re hydrating soloution. Using fruit juice , pinch of salt and sugar depending on sugar content of juice.
Hope she gets better soon poor thing.

thank you folks.
might try chicken and rice..

yes, plain white rice is excellent at sorting diarrhoea out, apple puree is also v. good.
Avoid fats and fatty foods

well, it is not all day or anything, just every time she goes to loo... have had trouble resisting her cries for food! did try flat coke..
and apart from occasioanlly looking pale, she is ok, if more naughty than usual.
did not like to bother GP {blush} was going to mention it when i took ds on friday with unexplained rash, but was not that approachable.
