Diapers Q&A
17 month old boy had stomach flu, now puking once a day going on 5th day...normal?
My little guy suddenly developed the ugly symptoms of a stomach bug...vommiting, fever, diarhea. Started on Sunday, no puke monday, puked tuesday (once) puked wednesday (once) and now 2 am he puked again. He has also had at least one diarhea BM a day. drinking fluids had a couple wet diapers wednesday, acts mostly normal. Husband and I have same symptoms minus daily vomit. is it just that he has a weaker immune system?, wednes day he ate 2 smal bowls of chicken noodle soup, some scrambled eggs, and a few bites of porridge. He kept it down til 2 am....is this normal? any tips?

- t´s most likely that you have the same ... maybe stomach flue...but cxould also be a viral infection that´s going around these days. I would see a doctor because even if it isn´t a great risk for u it could be risky for him. So better let someone have a look at him...
- sounds ok, he will be alright in a few days time
- Hi there, I am going through the exact same thing. My daughter also had an ear infection and was on antibiotics. Today is day 6 and she vomited twice. No more diarrhea since day 4. I found that if I stop giving her milk products, she is better. They are so young and their immune system needs a lot more repair than us. I'm feeling 100% after a 24 hour bout as well as my husband. But like I said, try to keep him from milk products (including formula) and he should be getting better. Its hard on their digestive system. LOTS OF CLEAR FLUIDS (that's what my health link told me) Good luck!
