How bad is the diarrhea? Is the stool soft, or is it watery? Soft is okay, but watery is not good. When my baby had extra soft stool, Carolyn McPherson suggested some plain yogurt (no aspartame), mixed with some of your gliders favorite fruits, and maybe a hint of honey. This really pepped-up baby gizmo, and hardened his stool. :)
good luck!
cheri & gizmo

: I wouldn't recommend taking him off the brisky's. Any new foods, may cause your glider to have diarrea. You can try baby apple juice and pear juice to help bind her up. Maybe even some banana's.

: IMPORTANT! If you are giving fruits along with the brisky's you MUST add the protiens also. Otherwise you are throwing off the balance of the brisky's. TRy adding mealworms, crickets, chicken, turkey too.
