Giardia can get nasty very quickly and can actually kill puppies, so if the diarrhea worsens, persists and/or if there is ANY blood in it, get the pup in asap. Diarrhea is also very dehydrating in young pups.
Not to scare you, but at that age - they can go downhill very quicky, even when they seem fine. | I think Armani and Marcel went through this at same time. All I can say is the fecal test is so cheap so better safe than sorry.
