need help

in June 2015 Moms
Up with my 2 1/2 yr old since 4am shes been throwing up and its now 8:02. I feel so helpless and bad for her...left a message for her dr. But havent heard back yet :/

Any advice would be great....Im trying to get her to drink some water but all she wants to do is lay there and hold her sippy cup :/ which is understandable. I wish this would just go away

    Is she peeing?  When my child had the stomach flu, the doc told me that a dry diaper for more than 12 hours was a direct trip to the ER.  Granted, she was 5 months old at the time.  Hope she feels better soon.

    She didnt have one when she woke up at 4 but had plenty during the day before she went to bed last night...I just feel so helpless. Hopefully the nurse calls me back soon considering I called over an hr ago

    Try giving her juice...might be more incentive for her to drink and get fluid in. Also, popsicles

    Any news from the doc? Get some Gatorade or pedialyte. Give her a tablespoon full every 20 minutes. If she keeps it down, give a little more! I agree tho, 2 wet diapers during the day is a good sign, any less, and she's become dehydrated. Don't push food. She'll eat when she's ready!

    sorry I have not responded!!! I am just seeing this...she had a really bad stomach virus.

    I had to follow a 24hr plan
    wait until she hasn't thrown up for at least an hr
    then start 4hrs of pedialyte 5ml every 5 min. 
    then if no throw up then the next 4hrs 10ml of pedalyte every 5 min

    then if no throw up then she can only have brat diet foods for 24 hrs. It was pure HELL but it worked great and she is now 3 nights in a row sleeping through the night!! CROSSING MY FINGERS I didn't just jinks it

    Oh, I feel for you, mama! My 2 and a half year old just finished up his stomach bug last week, then got hit the next day with an (unrelated) ear infection.  I feel your pain.  Hang in there!!

    My son came down with a nasty stomach virus today. Luckily, he felt better after about 8 hours. Still not eating a ton but is keeping fluids down.

    My son just had a stomach bug last week. Luckily it was a 24 he thing. Puking in the middle of the night is the worst. Glad your daughter is feeling better now.
