9 month old with gastroenteritus - question re: giving formula

Hi there
I have a 9 month old who's had gastro for about a week. It cleared up when I stopped formula completely but she and I had a really bad night of it because she clearly didn't want a bottle with just water in it. After a day without runny nappies, I started giving her formula again, and she's had a full runny nappy and a second one with remnants of runnyness...

What should I do? Stay off milk again OR try it but very diluted so she will drink some fluid without freaking out.

Have you asked NHS Direct for advice?

I haven't as I wasn't sure if it was serious enough. I'll put a call in to them as well, but always wanted to see if anyone here had any experience. Cheers
