Signs stable Health: Your child should be drinking normally, urinating with normal frequency and amount, normally active and alert and have her normal skin color. With diarrhea, the signs mentioned above will help you watch for dehydration. Not all urgent care places can start iv's in small children, so an er is a safer choice.
