Question

My 2 year old has dirrohea is there something like soya milk he can have instead of cowes he loves his milk?

Answer 1

Is he allergic or intolerant of cow's milk? If it's an intolerance, try using Lactaid or Dean's Easy Milk. If it's an allergy, then switch to soy. If it's just a stomach bug, don't give him milk until it's over in a day or two.

Answer 2

sure go to the store and buy some soy milk it is fine for toddlers. one of my preschoolers was lactose and we had soy milk just for her.

Answer 3

Milk doesn't make them have diarrhea.........If anything - milk binds them up.... But if it is hurting his belly - then he might me lactose int.  Try the Silk milk.

Answer 4

goats milk is better. i cant have milk my body cant break down cows milk so i use goats milk and i have my 11 month on  it too. and the sears family says it is ok too. goats milk is easy on his belly even easier then soy. but u can only get it in i think one pint for like 3 or 4 dollars but hey it will make him happy and not hurt his belly. but if u want u can water it down a little and that water will help with the dirrohea too. i would keep giving him water and keep the juices low too much sugar sugar makes it worse. i have gall stones so i have to be very careful of what i eat.  u can give him the perisure i think is what it is called. but i dont know how much sugar is in it. but check. well good luck if it gos on for more then a day i would take him in u dont want him to get worse. call your doctors office and see if u can give him any thing for it. i know with most stuff they have to be so old. well good luck

Answer 5

Have you tried him on the toddler formula? I give it to our son if he is not well or hasn't eaten properly. It has everything that they need, vitamins, minerals etc. Our son loves his milk too, but he is happy to have the formula. Hope he gets better.

Answer 6

Make sure you don't give honey. By the way, soy milk is aviable.

Answer 7

A friend of mine used rice milk for her daughter when she was sick, it seemed to go down easier than the soy milk.
