Since Thursday he has had diarrhea straight up to 15 times a day with bad cramping. I have taken him to his dr and er NUMEROUS times and they think it could be Toddlers diarrhea http://pedclerk.bsd.uchicago.edu/toddlerDiarrhea.html

My child is not dehydrated or loosing any weight.I have taken my child to the dr/ and or er 5 times since friday. Please help any suggestions what’s wrong. This is not a joke Please help

Answer 1

Is he keeping food down?

He may have eaten something that has blocked his digestive tract.  Have them run x-rays or a CT on his abdomen.  Kids eat weird things.  

How is the stress level in the house?  Lots of mum and dad fighting episodes?  Do you get sick a lot?  Kids react in varied ways to familial stress.  You could try some simple breathing exercises like in count to five, out count to 5.  Do it with him.  

You stressing over him being sick can double his stress.  Try to not let him see you anything but calm and collected.  If you're going to lose it, get hubby or someone else to watch him while you go somewhere else to let it all out.  The less everyone around him is visibly stressed, the less he'll react to the stress.

Keep breathing and keep working with the doctors.  Good luck

I am not a medical expert but this doesn't sound normal at all - as you know! Keep pushing the docs - you need answers x
