What should i give my toddler when she keeps throwing up?

I'm sorry to hear your toddler is throwing up. It's important to seek medical advice for any persistent vomiting in a child. Do not try to diagnose or treat your toddler's vomiting yourself.

Here's what you should do:

1. Call your doctor immediately. They can assess the situation and advise you on the best course of action.

2. Keep your toddler hydrated. Offer small amounts of clear liquids like water, diluted juice, or oral rehydration solution (ORS).

3. Rest. Allow your toddler to rest and avoid strenuous activity.

4. Monitor for signs of dehydration. Look for dry mouth, sunken eyes, decreased urination, and lethargy.

Do not give your toddler:

* Solid foods. These can irritate their stomach and worsen vomiting.

* Milk or dairy products. These can be difficult to digest and may exacerbate vomiting.

* Anti-diarrheal medication. This can worsen the situation if your toddler has a viral infection.

Possible causes of vomiting in toddlers:

* Viral gastroenteritis (stomach flu): This is the most common cause of vomiting in toddlers.

* Food poisoning: This can be caused by contaminated food or water.

* Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): This is a condition where stomach acid flows back up into the esophagus.

* Intestinal obstruction: This is a rare but serious condition that can block the passage of food through the intestines.

It's crucial to get your toddler checked by a doctor to determine the underlying cause of the vomiting and receive the appropriate treatment.
