I just got an email from a mother (permission to post) who says that her 15
month old with vomiting and diarrhea was diagnosed with Rotovirus,
hospitalized overnight for IV fluids. Home the next morning, then vomiting and
diarrhea began again. She saw her pediatrician, and was told that the baby
had developed secondary lactose intolerance and that she should formula feed
for a few days. Mother is not keen on this idea. This child eats solids and all,
but nurses quite a bit. I told her that I wouldn't be too anxious to introduce
something new (especially a foreign protein) into the diet of a child who is
already experiencing gastric distress. Any thoughts or ideas? Please email me
privately. Thanks! Debra Ray, RNC, IBCLC, Lawrenceburg, KY
