Kayla has had the runs for about 4 days now. At what point do I take her to the doctor? She's eating and drinking fine. The first day (after a night of pooing) she was very clingy and miserable, but was still happily drinking both breastmilk and water. I got some hydralite iceblocks so they're on hand if I feel she's not drinking enough.
Since then she's been quite perky, playing well, her sleep is pretty normal (hopeless lol) and eating and drinking, and has had quite a bit of breastmilk.
As for the poos... wow... we've had a variety of green mush, black mush, completely undigested food in either blackish or yellow liquid! It's been really stinky and fairly regular. She had horrendous nappy rash for a couple of days, but that's improving now.
I just feel like I've been to the dr's so much recently, only for her to tell me each time that it's a virus and to wait it out. This was when me and the kids were taking turns having fevers etc.
I'm inclined to just wait it out since she's eating & drinking ok.. but the nappies really are gross. The last one was like black undigested food in wierd slimey stuff. I'm pretty confident the blackness isn't blood...
