Vomiting in infants, especially when related to dietary changes or specific food textures, is something to keep an eye on, but with the added presence of a fever, this situation requires more careful consideration. Given that this has been ongoing for 15-20 days and now accompanied by a fever, it could indicate an underlying infection or gastrointestinal issue. The fever suggests a possible viral or bacterial infection that could be affecting her digestive system. For infants, dehydration is a particular concern, especially with frequent vomiting, so it’s vital to ensure she stays hydrated. Offer small sips of fluids, preferably an oral rehydration solution, every few minutes. If she continues vomiting after fluids or cannot keep them down, medical attention is crucial. Aside from hydration, considering the prolonged vomiting and new fever, it’s important to consult her pediatrician soon. They might want to perform a physical examination, possibly a few diagnostic tests to determine if there’s any specific cause like gastroenteritis, a urinary tract infection, or another issue. In the meantime, keep her comfortable, monitor her fever, and administer antipyretics like acetaminophen as advised by her doctor to manage fever, while avoiding any solid foods temporarily and sticking to liquids she can tolerate. Avoid forcing any foods that might provoke vomiting. Prompt medical evaluation is best to rule out any serious conditions and get tailored treatment based on the diagnosis.

Hello dear I think it is probably due to excess water loss causing gastric discomfort It will require both hydration and proper medication Iam suggesting some medication for improvement Please follow them for atleast a week Salt sugar solution or ors for hydration Avoid heavy meals Avoid refined food Take khichdi and curd Avoid excessive overthinking Take loperamide medication in case of excess bowel movements ( syrup only) Take flagyl 400 mg twice a day for 5 days (for children metrigy plus syrup half teaspoon twice a day) In case of no improvement consult general physician medicine for better clarity Regards
