Stomach virus: Sounds like gastroenteritis, or a stomach virus that's going around now. Keeping hydrated is mainly what you can do. Water and pedialyte is best, in small frequent amounts. No fever helps, since that causes evaporated water loss, but lots of diarrhea complicates things. If your 18 mo old looks hydrated, making tears, and appears energetic, you're doing ok. Otherwise get him checked for dehydration.
