Whitish-yellow or : light-gray stools & vomiting can occur in viral gastroenteritis & viral hepatitis or other liver disorders. Kids may not be as sick as adults with Hepatitis A. but they are contagious. Check some rectal temps & save a stool sample to show his pediatrician. If he remains active & well-hydrated on Pedialyte, see his MD on Monday; if sicker, go to ER. Wash your hands thoroughly after changing him.
