Since toddlerhood, she's struggled with constipation, so the runny stools was something new for us. She does belch and seems like she might have a little Gerd/backup. She's also doing the yogurt/probiotic for kids. Our pediatrician said the only way to start is a food diary. She didn't think it was any kind of virus. Tough to track what goes on with school, though.


Have you tried cutting out dairy for a week and see if that improves anything? Kids can get secondary lactose intolerance following a stomach bug.

I'm experiencing a 48-day stomach bug. Ugh. I'm so over this! Everybody, wash your hands a lot.

I think sometimes a stomach bug can trigger IBS. I don’t know if this is only in adults, or if it can also happen in kids…in adults I know this can resolve through stress management and diet. But that’s what intermittent diarrhea makes me think of…

I really, really hope that is a typo!

Either way, hang in there.
