A member asked:

Are diarrhea and vomiting symptoms of malabsorption? if so, how much will the symptoms last? i believe that my baby doesn't tolerate oatmeal...

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diarrhea: Malabsorption is usually diarrhea. Malabsorption usually means poor weight gain and sick infants. If this is so please go see your pediatrician or GI specialist. If otherwise growing the V&D could be formula intolerance to milk or perhaps soy. Try an elemental formula like nutramagen or alimentum. If you think oatmeal then stop and start it later to see if change helps. See your dr too
