Hello, my 5yr old woke up a little bit ago with a nightmare, shortly after she vomits and has diarrhea. She seemed lightheaded and her temperature was only 95.3f. She also said she felt very hot. Her temperature is usually 97.6f. Within 30 minutes of waking she was all cleaned up, saying she felt better and went back to sleep. Should I worry? If she feels better and wants to go to school in 5hrs should I let her or make her stay home to keep a eye on her?
Your child could have got an indigestion which might have made her throw up. If this does not recur, there is no cause to get concerned. In case, it recurs, you need to give her ODEM syrup to reduce the vomiting and also oral rely Chat Doctor. If she feels fine and wants to go to school you can definitely send her to school and there is no harm in doing so.
