Diarrhoea is one of the top reasons young children end up in hospital — but you can act quickly to keep your little one safe.

🍼 If your baby has diarrhoea, start giving sugar-salt solution (SSS) right away to prevent dehydration.
🗣️ If your child has difficulty swallowing (like choking, spillage, or a wet-sounding voice), visit your clinic for help with an alternative feeding method.

⚠️ Danger signs to watch for:
– Sunken eyes
– Dry mouth
– Fast breathing
– No tears when crying
– Very sleepy or difficult to wake
– Not wanting to breastfeed or drink

Learn how to make an SSS and spot early warning signs — it could save a life.
