I wish all the toddlers I see with diarrhea had the advantage of being
breastfed. I would encourage mom to breastfeed above all else and not worry
about the lactose in the milk. All the anti-inflammatory factors in the
milk will compensate for the diarrhea caused by the temporary lactose
intolerance. Also you'd get the right blend of electrolytes as well as
calories. I also agree with the suggestion about rice and bananas.
