Bache Ko Ulti Ho?

Stick around and I'll walk you through the exact steps to keep your little one hydrated when they vomit, plus the one habit that can make all the difference in preventing dehydration. We'll cover how often to sip, what to give, and when a phone call is truly needed.

First Hours: Small Sips

First thing to do when your child starts throwing up is to offer tiny sips every few minutes. Use a clean spoon or a small syringe, and give just a mouthful of oral rehydration solution or plain water. Keep the breastmilk or formula flowing in small, frequent feeds, because the stomach can handle a little at a time.

Vomiting longer than

If the vomiting keeps going past two days, that's a red flag. It means the body is losing too much fluid and electrolytes, and the risk of dehydration rises quickly. At that point you should seek professional medical advice, rather than just waiting it out.

When to Call 111 or 999

Not every bout of vomiting needs an emergency call, but there are clear signs. Green or yellow-green vomit, blood, or a coffee-ground appearance means you should dial 999 straight away. If the child can’t keep any fluid down, is unusually drowsy, or you’re just worried, give 111 a ring.

The Spoon Trick

Here’s a simple trick that many parents swear by: keep a clean spoon or oral syringe right next to the ORS packet, set a timer for a few minutes, and give a tiny amount, wait for the timer, then repeat. Jot down each attempt on a notepad, it helps you see the pattern and makes it easier to tell a health professional what’s happening.

Baby under

If your little one is under twelve months old and can’t keep fluids down, that’s a signal to call 111 right away. Babies this young dehydrate quickly, and even a small loss of fluid can become serious fast. Trust your instincts and don’t wait.

Bottom Line

So, to sum it up: give your child tiny sips of ORS or water every few minutes, keep the breastmilk or formula coming in small frequent feeds, and watch the number of wet nappies. If they’re dropping, or the vomiting lasts more than a couple of days, don’t hesitate to call for help.

The one habit

The one habit that ties everything together is the tiny, regular sip routine combined with a simple log. By offering a few drops, waiting a few minutes, and noting each attempt, you stay in control, spot dehydration early, and give the doctor a clear picture if you need to call.
