Help! Sick baby!

[mammabing]

My son is 8 months old and has a stinking cold. Last night as I was heating up his dinner he projectile vomited lots (and I mean lots!) all over daddy as he got home from work (welcome home Daddy!) No fever, no other symptoms, just grumpy, snotty and clingy.
Since then he’s only been breastfed - he slept very poorly and has had lots of milk in the night.
Should I return to solids this morning? He normally has yoghurt, cereal or porridge and I know that dairy isn’t the best for if you have a cold. Or should I just continue with the breast milk and wait until lunch time.

I’d just offer him wee bits. Maybe an icelolly. Wee bit if toast or a bit banana and see how they go.

If he's had no more vomiting or diarrhoea I'd give him whatever her fancies eating

Does he have any fluids other than milk?

I would second maybe a mashed banana, or a little toast stay clear of dairy at this stage, he’s having BM so he’s fine.

just editing to add, babies swallow a lot of their phlegm that’s what he brought up yesterday, better out than in !, but his tummy might be sore now so a little easy to digest food until he’s settled. If he’s not sick again at lunch time offer him something more

Oh we do have some banana actually - it’s shopping day so we’re limited on choice!

He has some water with meals but other than that just milk.

He could be drinking a lot of milk because he has a sore or dry throat to soothe. I'd offer water and easy to eat foods.

Banana, yogurt etc

Thank you for your help everyone. He’s just had half a banana (don’t want to overwhelm his tummy) and he’s pinched a chunk of my toast! Got the water cup to hand too.
Fingers crossed it all stays down now!
