10-mth-old had diaorrhea for three days, just vomited everywhere... should i be worried?

[Aitchisforhalloween]

In fact, if i think about it her motions became looser on about friday, but on sunday became full-on water and undigested bits. that has continued about 4 times a day ever since.
i phoned the doc today and he said to continue what i'd been doing (not fussing about food, concentrating on her milk) and contact him on Friday if she wasn't any better.
anyway, tonight she went to bed quite late as she had taken a mammoth nap from 1pm til 5pm and we'd had to wake her up. she'd had plain pasta and green beans for lunch and later had some plain basmati rice and peas and she'd drunk a good enough amount of milk so it was bath and story time.
we wer just doing the last of her stories in her cot when she stood up and leaned her head on my arm, then absolutely unmistakeably winced with pain. i tried to comfort her, meanwhile she had some diaorhhea. (again unmistakably - it sounds like a bloody sodastream machine).

hung around for a couple of minutes talking to her so that i could be sure she had finished, but then when i picked her up to go and change her she was enormously sick. all her lunch came up, the poor thing.

weirdly, she seemed enormously cheered by this turn of events, but i am not. isn't it getting worse rather than better?

i am giving her as many liquids as i can (well, formula and water) but tbh she's batting the water away.

i'm worried because i'd have thought that she would be getting better by now, but the vomiting is definitely a turn for the worse...

any ideas or experiences?

she's asleep now, by the way, but she was roaring before she dropped off and i had to sit and stroke her back for quite a while to comfort her.

sorry if i sound a bit fretful, it's just that we've got to 10 months without this ever happening. just a couple of colds and that's it for illnesses.

bump. still a bit subdued this morning but no poo or puke. but then she hasn't really got anythign left in her stomach i don't suppose.
bumpity-bump.

poor her!

just keep with the fluids really, and take back to Doc is temperature or seems floppy/very ill

Make sure you wash everything thoroughly because it sounds like a bug and you don't want to get it yourself

Ds had similar for over a week. I gather it was a virus.

I think the best you can do is give keep her hydrated and be careful with the diet.

Rice, potatoes or toast are very good. Beans are a no no, i think.

We also stopped his milk for three days eventually and it worked wonders. We gave him pepermint tea instead (he loved it), water or those hydrating salts you can get from boots (he hated those).

thanks, mp and justaphase, good to know that there's an end in sight, i'll keep her on rice and potatoes for the forseeable (somehow, somehow my maternal spider senses already told me to steer clear of beans).

dd same age has been same since sat. gp told me no milk/formula for 48hrs and solids if she takes them. at the min she is only taking water a sleepinglots

hhhm, you see my GP said, and i quote 'thankfully we no longer starve children by cutting out milk, just try to keep her hydrated with anything. if you think the formula milk is too rich then make it up with more water.'
but everyone else in the world has suggested water only...

aitch it is confusing isnt it....

too right. poor dd is taking mammoth sleeps as well... i feel so sorry for her.

same aitch although will say it is allowing for unpresidented amounts of time on mn as she just wants to be held..rendering me incapable of doing much else than sit with her on my knee cuddling and the laptop on arm of couch...lol

see, after what morningpaper said i am busying myself bleaching and washing everything. (attack fo guilts as am not the world's best on that front usually).
