Breastfeeding
If your baby or infant is suffering from dehydration, then breastfeeding can be an effective way to help with the condition. Milk from mothers contains a lot of electrolytes and nutrients that can help restore the loss of these components due to diarrhea or vomiting. Also, it can compensate for the loss of fluids in the body, thus preventing some serious health conditions. An oral rehydration solution can also be used in some severe cases. Nevertheless, it is better to consult your doctor to prevent some side effects. During a rehydration period, avoid using formula milk for your babies. [3]
