Loose motions need to be treated in the first day for best results. Try any probiotic like econorm and visit a nearby pediatrician. Moong dal white rice potato can decrease the loose motion

Loose stool are commonly due to viral infection.. they settle down on their own all you need to do during this time is to provide supportive care and prevent dehydration.. Sometimes it may take upto a week for it to settle..
Next Steps
Keep assessing ur child for signs of dehydration. If stool has blood in it it could be Bacterial infection.
Health Tips
If child is not taking orally and has decreased urine plz connect with a pediatrician immediately..
