Vomitting

Help, Ladies! My DGS (who is 400 miles away) has been vomitting since Monday. He's 11 months old. His parent took him to A&E on Wednesday because he was becoming dehydrated. They sent him home after his blood sugar came up a bit. He seems a bit better, but still vomitting at times.

Its been so long since I had a baby (23 years!) I just can't remember how long sickness bugs can last in little ones.

Hmmm sounds like quite a long time to me. My top tip is to give a 5ml syringe of dioralyte every 5 mins to keep hydrated - this worked for dd2 when she couldnt even keep water down- when I gave her a beaker she would take a big glug and be sick again but syringe means you have control of amounts. Maybe another visit to dr is in order or a call to NHS direct. Hope he feels better soon.
