Diarrhea without being sick?

[sunnydays]

I think with young kids though, there can often be undigested bits of food...especially if they are eating things like corn or raisins (another thing I don't serve unless it is baked in something). I agree with Playfelt...I don't consider the child ill unless it is more frequent or more runny than usual and there are some other signs. However, I did have a child return on Monday last week after having gastro over the weekend and within half an hour of arriving he had a big runny poop and was miserable...I sent him home rather than risk exposing the others and myself to the nasty bug.

Signs to watch for when looking for illness are undigested pieces of food, frothiness, foul odour and severe acidity.

I watch for the signs that playfelt mentioned as my experience has shown that these things are signs of someone getting sick on me.
I love that scale Alphagetti !! I've never seen it before, thanks for sharing!
