Poorly boyšŸ˜“

So I apologise for tmi but my boy has SERVERE diarrhoeaā€¦. Heā€™s been to the doctors because he seemed to be dehydrated from itā€¦ heā€™s been given some electrolyte powder to put in his water but heā€™s down right refusing it!! Heā€™s 7 months so has been weaning too but hasnā€™t eaten since Saturday. Heā€™s doing ok with his milk but Iā€™m just worried as I canā€™t get him to take this drink!! I feel so guilty too heā€™s SO sore from constantly pooping and has started to bleed around his bottom from being so sore šŸ˜“šŸ’”

šŸ˜”. What works for me is that I give the electrolytes while she is sleeping, dream to feed and she drinks it all

@Imelda mine doesnā€™t dream feedšŸ„² gave him some through a syringe like I do calpolā€¦ the only way heā€™d have a bitā€¦ still much to his disgust!!

Can you put it in his milk?

I gave mine electrolytes in small doses before a feed. I put it in another bottle and microdosed him like 1-2oz a time. Depending on the brand of electrolytes we made up the full amount and stored it in the fridge and topped him up sporadically in the day. I hope he gets better soon

@Lauren itā€™s blackcurrant flavour so probably not ideal!šŸ„²
