    gastro?

    can anyone help me with this. 4 mth old ds, has had vomiting for 2 days and now diarrhoea for 2. except for being a tad wingey, he's his normal happy self. he's still crying for food, and i've been giving him water throughout the days, and limiting his formula to smaller amounts. (which seems fine by him). he's going to the dr in the morn, but is this all i can do for now. i bought some sachets of hydrating powder to mix with his water, but do i keep giving him his milk even though i know it'll come straight out again. thanks for any feedback.

    I would just keep giving the sachets - 5mls every5 mins for a while (thats what they give in hossy anyway)
    is he keeping water down?
