Hello, my 8 month old baby has caught the stomach flu and for the last 2 days he has been wetting his diapers much less.

Hi, thanks for your question!
It is recommended to give small amounts at a time, around 90 to 125 ml per hour (3 to 4 ounces) more than what he would normally drink.
The following document from Ste-Justine is very detailed, but don't hesitate if you have any other questions!
