It is best to consult with your doctor on what medication could be taken to help ease your diarrhea. In the meantime, drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration. Slowly add bland food to your diet (such as banana, toast, oatmeal). Take them in small amount every couple of hours till your symptoms resolves. Get someone to help with attending to your baby while your get the rest needed.
