Thrown up twice in the last 2 hours.

Had diarrhoea at about 2.

Temperature of 36.9

Been excessively irritable all day.

As always these things tend to happen on a Sunday. Shall we wait until the morning and go to GP/ call 111 or be doing something else?

The temp is normal.

I would just keep up the fluids and see how it goes.

I'd say you don't need to worry unless temp gets higher or they seem excessively sleepy. Keep up fluids is good advice and keep cool.

You can give dioralyte too .advice we had was 5ml every 5 mins until keeping fluids down. If you're ff think advice might be to hold off on milk but get advice on that as quite little. If bf carry on though - not supposed to upset their stomachs in the same way when they have a bug. Basically keep them as hydrated as possible and keep an eye on it

cheers guys, seems a little better, starting bed time routine so will keep an eye on it.
