Hello....
If the baby is suffering with loose motions, please rule out the cause.
Along with ors, u can also give other fluids like Buttermilk, veg stock, Coconut water etc.
U can give according to her urine output that is enough. No need of perfect measurements. Give her when shez thirsty and check the color of her urine. If it is normal(pale yellow), u can give normal quantities.
Avoid greens, fruits, whole wheat, rahi, jowar other millets,milk in her diet.
Give bland, non irritating foods which are easily digestible.
Instead of three meal pattern, follow small frequent meals along with adequate fluids.
Hope it's helpful.
