My Ds has been throwing up since yesterday, needless to say I am a mess, any good home solutions for nausea in a little one? I called the MD and there is nothing prescription for the little ones. Help!

Isn't this awful? You pretty much have to wait it out. If he/she will drink anything - most doctors suggest to get them to sip pedialyte (sp?). When kids are sick - our doctor suggests the BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast). Good luck -it's no fun. What feels the worse - is that you're the one they're looking for to help them - and there's nothing you can do. We've been there. Cuddle, cuddle, cuddle.

Thanks, he is breaking my heart asking me "what happening to me Moma?" I know I am not the only parent to ever have a sick kid, but it still sucks!

having just spent the last 3 weeks cleaning up vomit. My 3 year old and the rest of us have lived on sprite, popciles or italian ice cups and lipton chicken noodle soup. That is what all of us could keep down. Good luck. Just wanted to mention that Clorox is the only thing that kills it and you do not get immune to it. So wipe down the whole house or everyone could catch it again.
