What Causes Vomiting And Occasional Diarrhea With Odor?
Um.. ok, I will take a shot in the dark this is a real chat. I have a 10 month old baby boy who last sunday started throwing up. But it has been very random all week. For instance, Tuesday he didn't vomit at all, today he went all day without vomiting, then 2 hours ago lost his entire stomach (viguratively speaking). He has occasional diarrhea that is really foul smelling, almost, fishy.. or like a poison smell. I am really concerned and am taking him to Urgent care tomorrow when they open.

Hi.... by what you say I feel that your kid is having viral diarrhea. You need not worry unless the child is dehydrated. The dehydration signs and symptoms include, lethargy, sunken eyes, dry tongue, decreased urine output, loss of skin turgor and lethargy. If these are not there, you keep rehydrating him with oral rehydration solution commonly called as ORS. If above symptoms appear you can approach the nearest Healthcare facility immediately.
