I just thought I'd share the official list our pediatrician gave me for controlling vomiting. We've done the BRATS diet before, but here is the doctor's list:
DON'T GIVE:
1. Dairy products (milk, butter, eggs, cheese)
2. Citrus fruits
3. Aspirin by mouth
DO GIVE:
A. In the first 12 hours nothing but clear liquids.
Frequent small amounts are best
water
jello
tea
popsicles
bouillon broth
B. Next 12 hours give frequent small amounts. Add:
soup (not creamed)
soda crackers
apple sauce
rice
bananas
pretzels
toast and jelly
dry cereals (no milk)
tylenol by mouth
C. After 24 hours: (for older children)
skim (non-fat milk)
apples (no skins)
broiled chicken
cottage cheese
lean beef
tapioca
D. Gradually add more foods next two or three days. Do not rush back
to full, regular diet.

Greetings(!) from your FC. So glad to learn of Jose's success last Sunday and so sad to learn 'bout Bekah's continued regurgitations. It was so nice to see the two of you last Thursday and I was really heartened to see you and Peter connecting the way you did. We had a great time with all the family and all those prizes I won are DELICIOUS! Okay, gotta go, big, wet, slobbery kisses to the girls and a firm handshake to that man, Jose!
Glad that Rose is on the mend! But I'm very, very sorry that she didn't inherit Grandpa's "iron stomach!"
thanks for the info! very helpful, I sure hope it is helping her.
