Suggest Medication For Diarrhea,bloating Of Stomach And Pneumonia
My preemie was born at 26 weeks gestation which he developed necroentercolitis. He is now in preemie age,7 months. For two days now he has not wanting to feed as much,very runny stool and today I noticed a little bloating. No fever or sickness at this moment but was released from hospital two weeks ago for having pnemonia. Please help??? Very worried mommy.
Preemies after an eventful course to the extent of NEC needs to be watched especially if they get bloated in tummy and change in stool consistency. I suggest to see a Pediatrician and if bloating continues with vomiting, it's an emergency; otherwise for the time being, try giving some pedialyte and stop milk and milk products as secondary lactose intolerance is common in this age.
