    Hi my son is 2 and has had diarrhea for 5 days now And hasn't peed in over 24 hours. The doc says keep pushing the fluids and he will go but all he will take is the popcicles. Is there more I should be doing?

    You REALLY need him to drink Pedialyte or comparible product... diareah will seriously screw up your body chemistry and that will put back some of the things he is losing every day.

    Thanks. I've been trying that or Gatorade but he simply refuses. It's popcicles and that is it. I figure at least he is getting something...
