Is Diarrhea In An Infant After A Hit On Head Concerning?
My 8 month old rolled over from her stomach on to he floor today. It s hardwood. When she rolled to her back she hit the back of her head. She cried a couple minutes. I held her. She has no marks or bumps. I fed her lunch. She had diareah 4 times afterwards. Took her normal nap. Then ate dinner later. And had diareah again. Could this be from bumping her head? She eats only baby food. No table food.

Hi...This is not related to the trivial injury over the head. Do not worry. It seems your kid is having viral diarrhoea. Once it starts it will take 5-7 days to completely get better. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
