Sick 10 month old baby

I have a 10 month old baby girl who’s been sick ever since Christmas and yes, we’ve been to the doctors and the doctor didn’t do anything. I tried Tylenol. I tried Pedialyte. She can’t keep nothing down. She has very bad diarrhea and is throwing up if you guys have any suggestions, please let me know and yes, I tried Tylenol. I tried to bath tried everything. I’m frustrated and stressed and I feel like I’m doing something wrong. That’s she not getting better and I calling her pediatrician tomorrow hopefully he’ll help at least.

Is she running fever?

She did, but I gave her some Tylenol and it went down

I just don’t know what medicine I can give her for an upset stomach

There’s really nothing you can do except make sure she stays hydrated. If you nurse, keep nursing. If not, keep offering her pedialyte and her formula. Maybe try it in popsicles

Ok thank you

It’s most likely a stomach bug and it just has to run its course. If baby isn’t better in 3-5 days, I’d take baby back for a second opinion.

Will do

But is it normal for her just to take a sip of a bottle and then put it down because when she was born, she was malnourished and had a stress liver I guess I’m worried because she only weighs 17 pounds

@Noelle just keep offering it too her every two to three hours. my 10m old son is sick rn too and isn’t eating as much as he usually does I’m right there with you. FTM so I’m nervous about him being sick.

@Noelle yes. I know you’re worried. Just keep offering her fluids. You’re doing great mama ☺️

@Betty oh no I am so sorry and ok

@Temperance ok and thank you

Maybe it’s viral infection. It’s everywhere now. We had it two weeks ago. And it took about 1 week to heal. My baby didn’t want to eat, vomited and had very bad diarrhea. The only thing we could do is control his hydration

@Svetlana oh ok

If you’re really worried I’d go back in to the doctors or hospital. Sometimes they don’t listen when u say something’s wrong and u need to advocate for your child. Otherwise give it a little more time it’s been about 5 days so maybe she will feel better soon.

I went to the hospital and they told me nothing and all the pediatricians are full and she doesn’t have a doctors appointment till February

@Noelle does she seem worse today?

I’m not really sure she’s just been sleeping, but she drank a lot of Pedialyte today. Hardly any diarrhea but it’s mostly at night like when she starts throwing up and having diarrhea.

@Noelle how’s her temperature? Sounds like my boy.. he starts to get hot and fussy at night.. he has Rice Krispie breathing so I turned the shower on hot and we sat in the bathroom with the steam. The moisture of the air can really do wonders. I’ve been giving him little water throughout the day. It’s hard watching them suffer.

Her temperature fine

I have a humidifier by her crib

@Noelle that’s good. as long as she doesn’t seem to be getting worse. I think you’re doing wonderful! my boy has been sleeping a lot too since he got sick.. I think their little bodies are just exhausted fighting the sickness. I hope you little girl gets better soon! hang in there! 🩷 you can always message me!

Thank you same for yours

Just messaged you

She threw up again
