Hallo .Thank you for asking this question . If your baby's hydration is normal than you can wait for antibiotics . Give him probiotic sachet one daily for 5 - 7 days and plenty of liquid / ORS . This will help in early recovery . Hope I have answered your query .For further questions please contact .
