Hi,
Ds is 15 months and started vomiting at half 7 yesterday am, he was sick repeatedly until lunchtime then it seemed to settle. He had two minor bouts of the runs too. I took him to the drs late pm as last time he was vomiting it was his ears. Dr said just a bug, gave him diarolyte and said he should feel better today. When I got home he seemed hungry and as he'd kept breast milk down all pm, I tried him with a bit of yog. Sadly that all came back! He then slept well, fed throughout the night and kept it down, but had a terrible bout of yellow diarreoah when he woke. I still wasn't too worried as I assumed it was all just passing through. Today he's been very quiet and slept a lot, he seems in quite good spirits and tries to play in between but I can tell he's feeling weak. He's asked for bf about every hour and I've let him feed on demand ( bit of a shock to the boobs after just am and pm feeding!) he's also had a bit of squash but refused all food. Anyway, was just on the phone to my mum telling her how I thought he'd turned a corner and how he'd not been sick since last night and he threw up again!!! Just milk and not a huge amount, he then had another bout of the runs, this time yellow watery.
Is this normal, it should go on this long? Do I need to take him back to the dr? Would you be worried about this vomiting again this pm? He's a bit clingy and looks pale this evening but ok in himself. Trying to play and wanting more milk. Sorry for asking ridiculous questions but he's my first and everytime I've had something similar its only lasted 24hrs!
Thanks in advance.
