What would you give child who has been vomiting and has dioreah?

[DrNortherner]

He is aksing for food. I think toast.

I ahve a freind whi says ice lollies or ice pops. What do you think?

dry toast and water. Nothing else

yes ice lollies. I also give flat lemonade (doctor told me to) crackers etc.

BRAT
banana, rice, apples and toast
keep off sugar, fat and anything to acidy.

BRAT Bananas, Rice, Apples, Toast

'Commercial' icelolles etc would be too full f crap, nd could possiby make him sck again, but frozen applejuice lollie woud be fine.

key thing is to make sure they are properly hydrated (which is probably why ice lollies/pops) - they need not just water but also a bit of sugar and a bit of salt. Dioralyte is great, but if you haven't got that, then flat lemonade/coke will do.

If he's hungry, stick to bland and not fatty stuff - dry toast is good.

Hope he's better soon!

Flat lemonaid and a bit of dry toast or cracker.

ginger beer or ginger ale but not the reduced sugar one, full sugar only. Ginger helps to calm the stomach while the sugar will give energy and boost. Always works for us
Re food: rich tea biscuits are good or as everyone else has said, dry toast

Dioralyte tastes horrible and I've never yet managed to get DDs to drink it. Flat lemonade definitely (would avoid coke). Once he has kept the lemonade down he should feel much better and I'd give him a very small portion of what he fancies.

OK, has is nibbling a rich tea biscuit as wwe speak.

Poor mite

Flat coke is good because it's got sugar etc as well as fluid - and as far as DC are concerned it tastes a lot nicer than rehydrating potions especilally if DC are not usually allowed fizzy drinks (so there's going to be an additional placebo kick in there...)

my dd would never take dioralyte (well, it is pretty vile even if you don't feel nauseous) and doesn't like lemonade. So I got her some still 'sports drinks' as they are supposedly formulated for rehydration. Seemed to go down well.

plain breadsticks are quite good for the solid part.
