My DS (13 months) has been vomiting since Saturday night and hasn't kept anything down since Sunday bekkie including water and breastmilk. He woke at 4am for his usual breastfeed but I didn't give it because I was worried he would vomit, he was very distressed and hungry he woke at 6 retching and his little tummy/body was heaving but there was nothing to bring up.
I called the Healthdirect line last night and the nurse said tsps of clear fluid for 8 hours today , water I guess, because he won't drink hydralyte etc. But he wants more than a tsp and becomes very distressed. She said it should last 12/24 hours but it's already longer? Should I see a doc or will can they even do anything? Will he dehydrate? Heviscalready more lethargic than usual but then he is sick? I can't explain to him he can't have more water or food, or boobie! It's awful
Any advice gratefully received!
