I work in public hospital and norovirus and campylobactor are rampant in the community at the moment. 9 days is a little long for it to be noro. Has she been on antibiotics? that can cause c.difficle (in the elderly, I presume in children as well....)

I would def take her to the Dr and they may take a faecal spec to be sure. Let us know what Dr says,

Astin had campylobactor early last year which meant the diarrhia lasted for well over 2 weeks and his poos smelt sooooooo bad!! i think he was a bit off the whole time though, not eating with temp etc I took him to the docs after 2 days and they took a sample to test. I dont think there was any kind of meds though except for pedialytes bcos he wasnt drinking.

Def take her to the docs.]]> Thu, 07 May 2009 09:49:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26374&PID=680101&title=diarrhea#680101 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26374&PID=680071&title=diarrhea#680071 Author: KH25

Have you been to the doc and had it tested? They recommend you do that if it has been going on longer than 48 hrs I think. Ashleigh had campylobactor a year or so ago and it lasted 10 days I think. Just runny poos, no other unwell symptoms. I have no idea where she got it from!! She had a terrible nappy rash aswell and its hard to give them nappy off time when they are pooing all the time    I would let her play in the bath for half an hour or so twice a day with some salt in it, plus didn't use wipes as they stung and lots of barrier cream. Hope she gets better soon ]]> Thu, 07 May 2009 09:10:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26374&PID=680071&title=diarrhea#680071 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26374&PID=680067&title=diarrhea#680067 Author: fire_engine

Have you been to the dr? I suggest getting a poo sample and going to the dr to get it tested. If there is a bacteria/other organism causing it, then they may well be able to treat it. I swear by Imodium but I don't know if kids can take it. Given that she has no other symptoms, I wonder about a gut bacteria. Has she started any new foods? Also wondering about a reaction to something she's eaten.

You poor things.    Hope you get an answer and fix soon.]]> Thu, 07 May 2009 09:08:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26374&PID=680067&title=diarrhea#680067 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26374&PID=680035&title=diarrhea#680035 Author: NeoshasMummy

My almost 2 year old has had diarrhea for just over a week now, she hasn't run a temp or aced differently at all but it has been 9 days now and I don't know what to do. She can't go to care because of it.... is there anything I can do? Or what on earth could this be?? We have never had a tummy bug last this long.


Also no vomitting, no temp, no grizzling, still eating and drinking.

Help??? We are having to wash a tonne of clothes and sheets everyday and the poor thing has a rash ]]> Thu, 07 May 2009 08:39:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26374&PID=680035&title=diarrhea#680035
