[QUOTE="raykour, post: 1161430, member: 16801"] The 2 qts 3 times per day would be if she is refusing feed and not getting any intake and continuing to lose fluid through diarrhea. If the diarrhea has decreased and you got the 2 quarts of electrolytes in her and she perked up, HOPEFULLY, she will be hungry for her next meal of milk and you can continue on feeding her as normal. However, if she refuses the next feeding, you should tube her again with the milk and continue to do so until she starts to suck the bottle. You only need to continue with the electrolytes if she is continuing to lose fluid through the diarrhea. [/QUOTE]
