Vomiting And Pale Stools In 4 Year Old Baby

My 4 year old was up all night vomiting, this morning I saw that her bowl movement was loose and pale. Should I be worried? She is drinking fluids and passing healthy looking urine.

Hi well come to HCM.
Need not worry about paleness of motion content, may be because pf hyper peristalsis
stomach content is comming out very fast.you should look for proper rehydration with
ORS, and for that to control vomitting is very impotant, unless it comes under contro
oral rehydration will not be possible.If child strats exessive crying that may be early
symptoms with water demand and excessive thirst etc.So better you concentrate on
preventing dehaydration. Thanks

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum
If the quantity & frequency of vomiting & motions have reduced gradually and she is not dehydrated, You may not worry, it will get better .
If not , take her to a pediatrician/general physician.
Meanwhile very light food, and plenty of fluids is to be given.
