Vomiting and diarrhea (defined as watery stool, increased frequency of stool, or both) are most often caused by stomach bugs. Sometimes, the child can also have belly pain and fever. Most stomach bugs last only a few days and go away on their own. It is important to make sure your child keeps drinking water, juice, Pedialyte, or any other fluid they will tolerate (including popsicles). Usually a stomach bug can be treated at home. You should seek care if your child has any of the following:
Tummy troubles in kids might just be growing pains or a sign to slow down and rest.
Sometimes little systems get sluggish, but a few changes can get things moving.
Children's sensitive skin sometimes responds with rashes, often easily soothed.
Moving on to potty training is a big step towards independence for your little one.
