Home Remedies To Cure Diarrhoea In Babies
If you are a well-informed mother, then you must know that diarrhoea in babies can be life threatening. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most common health problems for babies. Every year, hundreds of babies die of diarrhoea in India because they are not treated properly. This child mortality rate is shameful and alarming because diarrhoea among babies is a very easily curable disease.
So, what you really need are some effective home remedies to cure diarrhoea before it harms your baby. There was a time when there were no medications to cure loose motions for babies. At that time, the home remedies for diarrhoea solely sufficed to treat the little ones.
Here are some of the best known home remedies for diarrhoea among babies.
Keep Feeding Fluids
The most dangerous side effect of loose motions is dehydration. If your baby is still dependent on breast milk, then keep feeding the baby regularly. Otherwise, give the baby lots of fluids to keep their body hydrated.
Salt-Sugar Water
When the baby is suffering from diarrhoea, they loose essential salts from the body along with water. So make a mixture of salt, sugar and water. Feed this to your baby to replenish body salts. If need be, you have to feed this drink to the baby forcefully.
Give Easy To Digest Foods
Do not feed the baby complex cereals or baby foods when they have loose motions. Give home-cooked foods like soft rice, banana, porridge and boiled apple.
Massage Gums
Sometimes, diarrhoea in babies is caused due to pain of teething. In that case, give the baby a comfortable toy to chew on. You can also massage your baby's gums with your fingers to ease the pain.
Gripe Water
One of the most universal remedies for loose motions in infants is gripe water. Gripe water eases the pain in the stomach and also releases the gas from baby's tummy.
It should take about 3 days for the baby's bowels to return to normal. But if the baby is passing watery stool every hour or you see any blood in the stool, rush to a doctor immediately.
