Suggest Treatment For Vomiting, Diarrhea And Sleeping Issues In A Child
My 5 year old daughter for the past 4 days has woken up in the night to vomit repetitively, during the day she has only on and off complaints of nausea she is eating small amounts. I am offering her lots of fluids. She has had greenish pudding like diarrhea and is very strong awful smell . I am concerned with the color, & she has no fever. Today was the first time she vomited in the AM. I have been giving her a very low dose of melatonin 1mg for the past week to help her sleep as she has trouble getting to sleep before 10pm my husband thinks it maybe causing it what are your thoughts?
