Concerned about 13mo

[boyse4]

So, my 13mo ds has been having diarrhoea almost every night for the last 2 weeks. Most nights bad enough that it leeks out his nappy and I'm having to change the sheets.

Has anyone experienced this?

Has anything changed recently, like his milk?

Has your DS had vaccination's recently? My daughter had this for about 10 days after her 12 month jabs, so badly that we often had to give her a bath in the middle of the night.

@BunnyRuddington nothing has changed recently 🤷‍♀️ he has cut right back on milk but no others have been introduced!

@Fantail86 he's due his vaccinations on 28th august so not that! It's horrible isn't it 🤦‍♀️

Has he been unwell recently?

@bloodywhitecat not anything more than just standard colds that they all get!

Hello, my son had this after a bit of a tummy bug and the runny poop didn’t stop for weeks. The doctor suggested try lactose free diet (I use alpro growing up milk) and take all dairy out as it can be common to be dairy intolerant for a period of time. It sorted him out immediately.

Hope all gets better soon

@JKDcot thank you for your advice! It's so horrible isn't it. And must be so uncomfortable for them too!

My ds is already dairy free and has been since 5 months! I think he may have some other allergies I need to look in to!

Sounds like he needs a referral to the Allergy Clinic

Look at toddler diarrhoea too, it might fit.
