My 9 month old DD has had sickness and diarrhoea since Monday and it's now Friday! The first two days were the worst, but since then it hasn't been very intense. Maybe one bout of diarrhoea per day and one or two big barfs. I phoned the GP on Monday and the nurse practitioner told me to get Dioralyte, which I did. She told me to give her nothing else - just water, maybe juice. But a couple of times I've really thought she was better and I've given her a yogurt or something, only to be spectacularly thrown up on. I've also been breast feeding her - it's so counter-intuitive to starve her. Have I made it worse? I have it myself now, it's rotten, but she has never seemed distressed, not since the first two days.
