Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for posting your query.

I understand your worry about your son.

He needs a complete evaluation by a competent Paediatrician. Vomiting and nausea in infants should be considered serious. Please take care of his hydration. Give him ORS liquid orally as and when required. Continue to give mother's milk. It will help him to boost the immune status.

Changing WBCs value also indicates a probable infection and low immune status.

I strongly suggest you to get him evaluated for any underlying systemic infections.

But, do not worry; infants of his age do get these problems. He should be fine soon.

Hope I have answered your query. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
