Specializes in Pediatrics

Immediately: If this is related to a typical viral vomiting illness in the child, then immediately. The key is to give small amounts at a time, then gradually increase the volume as baby tolerates. Watch wet diapers, want to have one every 8 hours or so. Wash your hands! Best of Luck!
