A member asked:

My son is 7 months and has had frequent diharreaha and vommiting with loss of appetite what could it be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Common gut virus: After 3m the antibody protection that mom gave to baby through the placenta wears off.Then we expect them to begin experiencing viral GI illnesses about three times a year. The kids ingest germs from their environment from their fingers & the germ can start in the throat & stomach & progress to the intestines. Vomiting is often seen before diarrhea.
