Thanks for getting in touch.
What you do will depend on how long your baby has been having diarrhea for- however as the following explains babies shouldn’t be given anti-diarrhea medication: https://www.babycentre.co.uk/a82/diarrhoea-in-babies
You can help by ensuring that your baby is hydrated. If your babies been unwell for more than a few days then you should seek medical advice.
