Hi, my 5 month old baby is teething and she has diarrhea. is there anything i can give her for it to stop? (she is currently on epilepsy medication)

Maybe: I do not accept teething as a definite cause of loose stools in a 5 mo. At that age the antibodies they got in the womb have warn off & they start getting viral diarrhea which may also include fever. Regardless, I find applesauce, rice cereal & fresh bananas all help firm stools at this age.
