Throwing Up That Lasted For A Day And Gone The Next..

One minute and she was feeling well. She feed on her milk and the next thing you knew, she is vomiting all what she took. The baby is so sick they sleep all day. They would only wake up to feed but after feeding, they would again throw up. The next morning, she is feeling well. What just happened?

Gastroenteritis

Gastroenteritis (also known as gastric flu or stomach flu, although unrelated to influenza) is inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, involving both the stomach and the small intestine and resulting in acute diarrhea. It can be transferred by contact with contaminated food and water. (wiki)

This condition does not last that long. It’s n0t dangerous but parents should be very concern on their kids as vomiting and diarrhea can cause dehydration.

Below are some necessary measure that kidshealth.org offered to us. You can just click the link to know more about it or read on as I copied some of the texts found there.

The following text below are not my own as this are direct copy from kidshealth.org:

For Infants Under 6 Months

Avoid giving plain water to a young infant unless your doctor directly specifies an amount.
Offer your infant small but frequent amounts — about 2 to 3 teaspoons, or up to ½ ounce (about 20 milliliters) — of an oral electrolyte solution every 15 to 20 minutes with a spoon or an oral syringe. Oral electrolyte solutions (available at most supermarkets or pharmacies and also called oral electrolyte maintenance solutions) are balanced with salts to replace what’s lost with vomiting or diarrhea, and they also contain some sugar. It’s especially important for young infants that any fluids given have the correct salt balance (unflavored electrolyte solutions are best for younger infants).
Gradually increase the amount of solution you’re giving if your infant is able to keep it down for more than a couple of hours without vomiting. For instance, if your little one takes 4 ounces (or about 120 milliliters) normally per feed, slowly work up to giving this amount of oral electrolyte solution over the course of the day.
Do not give more solution at a time than your infant would normally eat — this will overfill an already irritated tummy and will likely cause more vomiting.
After your infant goes for a period of time (more than about 8 hours) without vomiting, reintroduce formula slowly if your infant is formula-fed. Start with small (½ to 1 ounce, or about 20 to 30 milliliters), more frequent feeds and slowly work up to the normal feeding routine. If your infant already eats baby cereal, it’s OK to start solid feedings in small amounts again.
If your infant is exclusively breastfeeding and vomits (not just spits up, but vomits what seems like the entire feed) more than once, then breastfeed for a total of 5-10 minutes every 2 hours. If your infant is still vomiting, then call your doctor. After 8 hours without vomiting, you can resume breastfeeding normally.
If your infant is under 1 month old and vomiting all feeds (not just spitting up), call your doctor immediately.

For Infants 6 Months to 1 Year

Avoid giving plain water to an infant under 1 year unless your doctor directly specifies an amount.
Give your infant small but frequent amounts — about 3 teaspoons, or ½ ounce (about 20 milliliters) — of an oral electrolyte solution every 15-20 minutes. It’s important that any fluids given to infants under 1 year of age who are vomiting have the correct salt balance (again, oral electrolyte solutions are balanced with salts to replace what’s lost with vomiting or diarrhea).
An infant over 6 months of age may not appreciate the taste of an unflavored oral electrolyte solution. Flavored solutions are also available, or you can add ½ teaspoon (about 3 milliliters) of juice to each feeding of unflavored oral electrolyte solutions. Frozen oral electrolyte solution pops are often appealing to infants in this age group; this approach also encourages the slow intake of fluids that’s required.
Gradually increase the amount of solution you’re giving if your infant is able to keep it down for more than a couple of hours without vomiting. For instance, if your infant takes 4 ounces (about 120 milliliters) normally per feed, work slowly up to giving this amount of oral electrolyte solution over the course of the day.
Do not give more solution at a time than your infant would normally eat — this will overfill an already irritated tummy and will likely cause more vomiting.
After your infant goes more than about 8 hours without vomiting, you can reintroduce formula slowly to your infant. Start with small (1 to 2 ounces, or about 30 to 60 milliliters), more frequent feeds and slowly work up to the normal feeding routine. You can also begin small amounts of soft, bland foods that your infant is already familiar with such as bananas, cereals, crackers, or other mild baby foods.
If your infant doesn’t vomit for 24 hours, you can resume your normal feeding routine.

For Kids 1 Year and Older:

Give clear liquids (milk and milk products should be avoided) in small amounts (ranging from 2 teaspoons to 2 tablespoons, or up to 1 ounce or 30 milliliters) every 15 minutes. Clear liquids that are appropriate include:
- ice chips or sips of water
- flavored oral electrolyte solutions, or add ½ teaspoon (about 3 milliliters) of nonacidic fruit juice to the oral electrolyte solution
- frozen oral electrolyte solution pops
If your child vomits, then start over with a smaller amount of fluid (2 teaspoons, or about 5 milliliters) and continue as above.
If there’s no vomiting for approximately 8 hours, then introduce bland, mild foods gradually. But do not force any foods — your child will tell you when he or she is hungry. Saltine crackers, toast, broths, or mild soups (some noodles are OK), mashed potatoes, rice, and breads are all OK.
If there’s no vomiting for 24 hours, then you can slowly resume the regular diet. Wait 2 to 3 days before resuming milk products.

It is very important that parents observe their kids and never ever PANIC.

Tawa Tawa Weed To Cure Dengue

Although there has been no clinical study to prove it, more and more people used tawa tawa weed to cure dengue. The use of the word cure here means to stabilize the condition of the patient as we know it has no cure.

What is TAWA TAWA WEED? Can tawa tawa weed cure dengue?

It is a plant that grows in grassy area. Below are some tawa tawa photos I took on our neighbor’s garden:

Some notes on making the Tawa Tawa tea:

they say than when you harvest Tawa Tawa, the roots should be included
the patient should only drink Tawa Tawa for 24 hours
in making Tawa Tawa tea, the roots should be removed.

Is it really effective to treat dengue fever?

Some claims that it is really effective. DOH already said that it has no toxic substance but it should be taken along with effective medication.

So how come the use of tawa tawa can cure dengue fever?

When you have dengue fever, the number treatment is to drink lots of fluid, specially water. Drinking tawa tawa tea is also fluid replacement.

Aside from drinking tawa tawa weed to cure dengue, what other treatments are effective in treating dengue fever?

Here are some of my posts about Dengue:

Product: As Fresh As Cool Wind

One of the reason why I don’t go to the bathroom often (when I am out of the house is), I am a bit acidic down there. A simple weewee would mean a not so good smell coming from there. And we all know we just can’t wash on a any public bathroom. Have you tried that? For some, use of tissue is the option but not to me as I don’t feel comfortable with the texture of any tissue.

So instead of going to the bathroom, I usually hold my bladder until it is about to burst. Thus resulting from UTI. I know it’s bad for my health but what can I do? I just don’t feel wiping tissue is a good idea. Sometimes I wish there would be some kinds of a wet ones intended for our intimate area. And one coming from one of my favorite brands.

Well it seems that I am in luck as pH care introduce to me a new set of feminine care and that is pH Care Feminine Wipes.

It comes in two scents. Passionate bloom (the pink one or may I say the original one) and Cool Wind (the green one). It comes in 10 wipes pack with easy to open and resealable label. Last Saturday when I attended the ParenTIN tv event, I bought the Cool Wind with me. I really want to use it that day and see for myself if it can really keep me feeling fresh and clean. So after I had a hefty lunch with my marce Yami and drinking lots of water, I head on to the bathroom and used it.

Let me first share with you my experience as I use it (no worries, no gory details). For one, I love the smell of Cool Wind as it reminds me so much of summer. And so when I pull out a wipe and wipe it down there, I was surprised by its softness. It really is super soft.

The event goes on and I was busy chatting, walking, picture talking as usual. Went staright home after the night, I was too tired that I fall sleep with make on and with my clothes on (yuck!). The next morning when I noticed that down there is a bit different. No foul smell? Really now?!? after a stressful day? I can’t believe it! It was true to its word that it would leave me feeling fresh and clean even after 12 hours!

The good thing about pH Care Feminine Wipes is, it is SAFE to use everyday. It is very convenient to use, specially to people who is always on the go. Working women will benefit more on this product. Include this in your kikay kit girls.

Tomorrow, I will be out again and this time, I will try pH Care Feminine Wipes in Passionate Bloom scent.

Mommies should also bring this specially when they travel with family. As we know how mommies can be very busy, taking care of their intimate area should be their least problem.
