give him plenty of fluids and if it doesn't ease after a couple of days go and see your GP. Its horrible when they're poorly and there's nothing we can do isn't it?

Sounds like your doing great job

If last longer then a couple days go to the docs like bibswy said

Hope he's better soon x

Just one thing though, maybe apply a thin layer of vasaline when you do his bum to provide a protective layer, i know that when my two have diarrhea(sp) thay get bad nappy rash
