Hello,

It could be gastritis. Visit pediatrician rather than GI specialist as you told, all members in family has stomach flu, so strongly support to ne same.

Give him anti-emetic drops round the clock, continue feeding, and ensure adequate urine output.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
