7 month old dd has, what I'm pretty sure is just a D&V bug. She isn't upset or in pain and no temp is refusing solids. Mostly just very sleepy and needing lots of cuddles. She is formula fed, both feeds I have offered today have come up as projectile sick which obviously distresses her. She has been taking water and keeping it down so I'm just wondering if I should offer her any more formula today or just give her water and see how she is tomorrow?

Just back from doc with 8 month old displaying same symptoms but still happy smiley. He's only kept down 180ml in nearly 36 hours. Doc said fluids little and often, paracetamol to lower temp and if he's difficult to rouse to go straight to hospital, but expects baby to be better in 2-3 days.

Doc also gave antibiotics but i'm not sure strictly necessary as he said virus.
