Hi all

My 12 year old son was sick at school today and came home (his brother had a sickness bug late last week)

He’s been sick 3 times since lunchtime, even sips of water are coming back up.

I’ll give him ice cubes to suck but what else can I do? It’s 35 degrees here currently, all windows and blinds have been shut since this morning but it’s still like a furnace in my house!

Dioralyte sachet in water, you need a salt/sugar mix to settle the stomach

No gulping water, very small sips until he stops bringing the water back up

Rehydration sachets will help.

Even if he pukes he will be absorbing some.
Little and often at a time.
