A normal reaction of the stomach as it tries to eliminate contents that irritate.
- Vomiting — forcefully expelling what’s in your stomach through your mouth — is your body’s way of getting rid of something harmful in the stomach. It may also be a response to irritation in the gut. Vomiting isn’t a condition, but rather a symptom of other conditions. Some of these conditions are serious, but most aren’t a cause for concern.
Vomiting can be a one-time event, especially when it’s caused by eating or drinking something that doesn’t settle right in the stomach. However, vomiting repeatedly can be a sign of an emergency or a
serious underlying condition.

| Home Remedies |
- Keep taking small sips of water frequently to prevent dehydration
- Have foods containing ginger (tea, biscuits)
- Sip fruit juices, sports drinks, or flat soda pop
- Have small frequent, bland meals when hungry
- Sucking on hard candies
- Using Aromatherapy
- Getting plenty of rest is also an important step for giving the body time it needs to heal after a vomiting episode.
- Preventing dehydration is an important goal when a child is vomiting. However, they may not always want to drink fluids, so there are creative ways to help them take in fluids.
- Make ice pops or ice cubes from oral rehydration solutions or drinks containing electrolytes.
- Give a child gelatin as an alternative to liquids. They may tolerate it better or be more likely to eat it.
- Dilute fruit juice with water. Dilution reduces the amount of sugar in the juice that can worsen diarrhea that sometimes accompanies vomiting.
- Give a child rehydration fluids 30 to 60 minutes after they have vomited to reduce the likelihood the child will immediately vomit again. Start with a small amount to make sure the child will tolerate it.
- Provide bland foods to the child one they have not vomited for about 8 hours and kept fluids down.
- Examples include crackers, toast, bland soups, bananas, and mashed potatoes. These foods can help fill and settle the stomach.
- Treating children who are vomiting can be difficult because they are not always able to express what they are feeling. Providing small amounts of hydrating solutions at a time can help.
