freaking out. daughter sick

[afraid213]

My 3 year old has had a fever for the last 5 days and she has diarrhea now. I'm so scared she's going to vomit. Does this sound like a stomach virus or is it maybe caused by the ibuprofen I've been giving her since yesterday?

It's the medication. Typically when there's going to be v*ing with a bug it comes BEFORE a fever. Sounds like she just has a little fever bug. No big deal. She'll be ok and so will YOU!

Thanks. I've been on edge the last 5 days!

I know the feeling. She's really going to be ok. Keep your chin up. Take her for walks, read books, distract yourself!

Ibuprofen can cause GI upset. And kids can get diarrhea from fevers/viruses without vomiting. Hope she feels better soon!
