ds woke up a bit perkier, no poo's at all today. ate breakfast, snacks etc. I took him anyway just in case, but dr said its not unusual for diarrhoea to last a week. as long as his fluids are ok, she wasn't too concerned. especially as he seemed fine grabbing all the instruments of her desk (not the big box of toys on the floor of course..). she mentioned it could be range of things and said we could do a stool sample but that's messy & wouldn't change treatment plan.
I think he's on the mend now anyway, appetite is back & bottom seems to have closed shop. thank goodness. :-)
