Baby stomach bug questions!

Shamefully posting for traffic.

8 month old DD has a stomach bug (I think anyway). She has thrown up her milk a few hours ago and now she’s thrown up bile (according to DH, I’m not at home yet).

I’ve looked on the NHS website but other than trying to keep her hydrated, is there anything I need to do or does anyone have tips to make her feel better?

I’m naturally an anxious person and she is my PFB!

You could try Dyoralite in little sips from the bottle if she’ll take that. It’s better at keeping them hydrated and replacing salts than plain water.

When DS has same recently, GP told us to avoid milk while he was still puking.

If she’s not better after 24 hours, I’d go to the GP.

Poor you, it’s awful when they’re poorly.

Thank you!

Yeah it’s the first time she’s been properly unwell and I feel so bad for her.

She went to a farm park yesterday with her childminder so I think she must have picked something up then

Hm, you can pick up nasty bugs on farms. Keep an eye and ring 111 if you’re at all worried.
