What Causes Persistent Vomiting In A Child?

A one year old child vomiting every 30 minutes or so for the last 3 hours. The first few vomits were just normal ones... she just threw up the food she ate. However, after that it was foam like substance. She looks tired and everytime she vomits it is agonizing o see her struggling to breath and vomit simultaneously: Any advice, please?

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi
Since the child is looking tired, he/she may be dehydrated.
The child needs to be seen in person by doctor preferably a Pediatrician as soon as possible.
In the meanwhile you can give small sips (5 ml) of Electral or any other oral rehydration solution frequently (every 5 min)
