39° and vomiting

My DD is almost 3, stayed with her Nanna Friday night as I was away with DP. She was fine when I left her but vomited twice around midnight and didn't sleep after that, didn't eat a thing and barely drank. I collected her as soon as I could (3 hour drive away) and bought her home. She did a huge nap, woke up feeling a little better and calpol bought temp down. She grazed on some fruit and toast and drank a small bottle of juice, temp down to 36.6° so assumed on the mend.

I stayed in bed with her and at 2:30 this morning she vomited again and her temp is now 39° and not coming down with calpol. No diarrhoea, hasn't done a poo since Thursday now (not abnormal, she has chronic constipation and takes cosmocol paediatric daily). What do we think this is and how do I handle it? First and only child, single parent with no voice of reason to assure me this is just one of those things that children get and she will be fine Halloween Blush

Well done for keeping going back/seeking help - as you knew she was not ok - what a week for you both.

Sorry to read she is so poorly, hope she picks up today.

Just keep asking questions -
