How Much Pedialyte For 7 Month Old. SHE HAD DIARRHEA FOR 6 DAYS-BUT STILL ATE CEREAL AND DRANK HER MILK. Your infant can still take breast milk in small amounts only every 1 to 2 hours. I want to get as much fluids in him as possible as he doesnt have much of an appetite and want to avoid milk for obvious reasons. The last 2 12 days hes been back on drinking straight formula.
Pedialyte will keep baby hydrated but so will breastmilk. Those who are refusing to eat or drink because of illness or recovering from an illness associated with vomiting are usually offered full volume replacement substitute the same amount of Pedialyte as baby would normally take in formula or breast milk. Pedialyte for 12hrs and then mix half formula mix half pedialyte for the next 24 hrs and told me if that didnt work to call them back. So again you want to nurse more. Infants less than 6 months old can be given 1 tablespoon every 15 to 20 minutes while infants 6 months to 1 year can be given 1 or 2 tablespoons every 15 to 20 minutes. The pediatric hospital recommends the following dosages of liquid to work up to gradually.
