LO is throwing up everywhere! Help!

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
I took DD to the dr. today because she had thrown up twice between 7 and 9 AM.  (Once all over me and the carpet, ugh.)  He said it was a virus, to feed her a little formula at a time and call if it hadn't cleared up by tomorrow.  She has thrown up 2 more times since then.  Both times on a quilt I decided that I would keep her on while she was downstairs.  I mean, I can only wash so much!  Is this what you would do?  I just clean the area and put a towel over it.  It's so sudden, so I can't get her to a place like the sink in time.  Has anyone had any experience with this?  Do you have any tips?

    Poor thing, I hope she feels better by tomorrow. I would keep a towel around and maybe keep it on her if you're so worried about getting puke everywhere.

    ETA: I mean, keep her on the towel, not the towel on her. Excuse me, I'm going off of very little sleep over here!

    This is a good idea.  She's taken out 1 of my outfits, three of hers, the carpet, her bed, the quilt...  She does okay if I feed her right before she falls asleep, but she's so active right now that if I feed her while she's up it comes back.  I wish I could find a way to keep her more calm.

    is there anyway you can get some pedialyite?  is she puking every hour?  When DS had the stomach flu I kept him in a diaper and was surrounded with washcloths and burp cloths.  It got to the point where he was just dry heaving.  I started giving him pedialyite when he went over an hour without puking.  after that I'd give him an ounce of pedialyite every 20 minutes.  GL

    Poor baby. If it continues much longer I'd call the pedi's office again. I'd be worried about dehydration. I hope she feels better soon!

    When dd1 gets stomach viruses we put old sheets over all the rugs. (we have hardwood through out the house). At least makes the clean up a little easier.
