My little girl who will be 3 next month is very ill. I'm hoping it's just the stomach bug or something. She threw up right before dinner which was at 6:15pm, Then during and then after dinner. She only ate maybe 5 bites. Then I put her in the tub because she threw up all over herself. Then I had to leave with my cousin and was only gone for 30minutes, (I left her with my cousins mom) and my little girl threw up 4 times in the tub!! Then when I got her out of the tub she threw up. Then she threw up 4 more times after drinking some water and trying to eat some crackers. Now she is sleeping. She feel asleep at 9:45pm. She woke up at 11:40 dry heaving. I dont know what's wrong with her!!! I feel so bad. She has only been sick one other time. My children hardly EVER get sick and I hate every minute when they do. :(

I too have had a horrible day with sick kids. I'm a single mom with three kids ranging in age from 1 up to 8 and all four are sick. Unable to keep water down or anything. No fever, just violently ill. I hate seeing them like this. This may sound selfish, and it's not meant to be, but what I really hate is when I catch it too, I try my best to look after them but it's so hard when your tring to tend to yourslef too and there's no one else to pick up the slack !!

As a mother of 3-month baby,i can understand you're so concerned with your sick little girl.usually little childeren's being sick is the process of improving of their immune system,which was told by my doctor.But,you need to consult a doctor,as when you konw much about it u maynot be so anxious.

I hear you on that, I feel so bad for my son whenever he gets sick. It sounds like the stomach flu that has been going around. But that is alot for a child so young to be throwing up that much. To be on the safe side I would defiently call her doctor first thing in the morning. Better safe than sorry you know. Hope shes feeling better soon.

That's what I'm going to do. I called my mom to tell her that her grand-daughter was sick and that she cant even hold down water. I told my mom I have green tea and she said I should try that. Add some honey to it (very little) instead of sugar and no milk or anything. I tried that and she held it down for maybe 25minutes. I hope she's better by the morning. Thank you I hope she feels better as well.
