Hi ladies

My little boy is 6 and yesterday showed signs of coming down with a cold virus as he was really shivering even in pjs and heating on and blanket. He had a high temp. No other obvious cold symptoms but had a bit of a runny nose last night.

This morning he woke up and vomited a load of phlegm and then was sick twice within 2 hours and it was all the ton of water he had drunk this morning. No bulk just water. He has no runny nose today just the temp and aching he said.

He is starving hungry so having gentle foods and is full of life now just feeling warm and a bit achey.

Unless he vomits more, I would assume its a cold and the vomiting was the body getting rid of the phlegm.
Poor little thing, either way its not nice

I know he is running around bonkers now and wants to eat everything in sight and no diarrhoea
