DD (2.7) has had a stinking cough this week since probably sunday, getting gradually worse. Monday night she was sick after a coughing fit, presumed it was this caused the sickness. She seemed fine in herself before, and after vomiting.
She has had a cough this week, but been eating and drinking fine, tired (and telling us she is tired), and napping (and therefore not sleeping until later) each day, but her usual happy bouncy self. Yesterday, she got up in the evening about 9pm to say she felt sick, got to the loo, chucked up once, back to her happy normal self, but said he tummy was sore.
Today, she was not her normal self. DH said she ate all her breakfast of porridge, nothing else all day, refused everything, including water. Napped at 1pm ish woke up hot but DH did not take temp. Later said she was hungry but refused to eat. She has been sick 3 times this evening, including vomiting up her medicine for fever. She is complaining of sore tummy
Fever is 39.2, cannot get it down as she won't hold down food. She is miserable. Currently asleep but she would normally be asleep now.
She is asleep with nappy on, cover over her, but is really burning up.
She is ok isn't she? I should know its just a bug, but although she gets coughs and colds all the time, she is not physically sick very often at all.
