5 Ways To Cure Toddler's Diarrhea

Yeah, toddler diarrhea. Probably not the greatest topic on earth, but it is certainly one that needs to be addressed. I am unhappy to report that I have dealt with toddler's diarrhea more often than I care to admit.

Ways to cure toddler's diarrhea

But there is hope for you out there... yes, even those of you who content with diarrhea in diapers. There are some simple ways to alleviate diarrhea.

Ways to cure toddler's diarrhea #1
Steer clear of milk
Toddlers love milk, no doubt, but when they have diarrhea, milk is the enemy. Avoid giving them milk for at least a few days.

Ways to cure toddler's diarrhea #2
Probiotic yogurt
Yogurt is your friend, it is your toddler's friend. It is diarrhea's enemy. Probiotic yogurt provides the stomach with helpful bacteria that fights off whatever is causing your toddler's belly woes.

Ways to cure toddler's diarrhea #3
Increase water consumption
Fluids are incredibly important not only to hydrate your toddler, but to ensure that the bug or bacteria that is in their system makes its way out quickly.

Ways to cure toddler's diarrhea #4
Rice water
Make some rice and as the rice is simmering, extract some of the water and have your child drink it. Rice starch has a way of sticking to the gut and relieving diarrhea.

Ways to cure toddler's diarrhea #5
Bananas
Who doesn't love bananas? All children eat bananas and even when their belly is rumbling up a storm, you can mash up a banana and convince them to have some of it. Bananas can settle an upset digestive system and are rich in pectin, a soluble fiber that helps to absorb liquid in the intestines.

Any other remedies you'd like to add? Feel free to do so in the comments.

Angelina Jolie Tops Yummy Mummy List

Angelina Jolie, to no one's surprise, has topped the Yummy Mummy list compiled by the UK because Mother's Day is this Sunday, March 22, 2009 over there. 

We really have no idea what kind of mom Angelina Jolie is behind closed doors, but every time she's out, we see this babe carrying like 3 of the kids and holding the other 3 kids' hands. Now that's something.

And Angelina Jolie always has a smile on her face when she's dealing with those kids. I only have 2 and feel borderline crazy at least half the time. More power to her. And her nannies. 

As for the rest of the list:

1- Angelina Jolie
2- (tie) Halle Berry and Reese Witherspoon
4- Kate Winslet
5- Jennifer Garner
6- Katie Holmes
7- Gwyneth Paltrow
8- Cate Blanchett

Pranav Veera is a 6-Year-Old Genius

With an IQ of 176, Pranav Veera is a one in a million genius who wants to become an astronaut. Yes, his dad has a PhD and his mom has two master's degrees, but to see a 6-year-old boy who has a photographic memory is just amazing.

Not only is he cute with the cutest little voice, but Pranav Veera can multiply better than some adults I know. You have to appreciate a kid with intelligence like that, huh? 

Kinda makes you feel bad that all your kid wants to do is pikc his nose and eat it. 

Here She is: The New Dora

When Mattel released a shadow image of what the new Dora the Explorer would look like, it seemed she was wearing a mini skirt and looked like an absolute slut. So, because parents were up in arms over the new Dora look, Mattel released its first image of what the new Dora will look like. 

And yeah, she's not exactly pole-ready just yet, but man, that is a serious change from the Dora we knew and loved. I'm still not sure that my daughter will understand that the old Dora just wasn't good enough and now this new Dora is the girl she should be admiring. 

What do you think? Is this Dora not a good idea? Will Diego turn into a pimp? Do these jeans make my ass look fat? Stay tuned.
