  Call these people they should be able to help you out as they probably have dealt with similar cases before

  My daughter was like this the other night, started at 11pm and through the night, by morning she was ok, I just gave her some toast, then she had a normal dinner and she was ok.

  Be careful...my son was like this at xmas...look up intussuscepted bowel. If she has stomach pain before heaving dont hesitate.

  Call the doc, it's what they are there for. Kids are never the best at telling you the whole story , the doc may pick up on something else.

  Noro virus is quite common this year, make sure she takes on water but not in big gulps or she'll just throw it back up again, an ice lolly (if she'll have one is perfect) other than that plenty of sips of water. You might be able to give her rehydration sachets if she's old enough but they're horrible so don't push it..
  
  When she's ready to eat, she will... Small portions though, very bland stuff to start with...

  Best thing is to call NHS Direct... 0845 46 47.
  
  Only thing is they can take their time calling you back. If you're really worried, call the doc. They get paid extra for working weekends, may as well make them earn it!

  Just call NHS direct, they will advise whether she should see a Dr or not, ( if she's under 5, I would insist on seeing one ) keep pushing fluids, it doesn't matter if she brings it back up, she will at least absorb some of it

  Yeah this is what I thought
  
  
  I have nephews and nieces that have been ill like this before and I remember the doctors saying its a case of waiting it out and if it gets worse call us and so on

  how old is she?
  my daughter is now 11, we've had a few bouts of this over the years, i find dry toast/plain biscuits good. still give her little sips of water tho, you can get dyoralite sachets from your chemist to replace her electrolites, just mix it with water. like someone else said, ice lollies are good, even though she is bringing liquids back up, she still needs them, even if its only for a little while til she brings it up again, if it dosent ease off in 24 hours i would see your gp. good luck! xxx
