Brief Answer:
ORS is the mainstay of treatment.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. It seems that you have an episode of gastritis.
You need to take some antiemetic like ondansetron as and when needed, especially before taking food (15 min-30 min prior to feeds). The mainstay of treatment is breast milk and ORS (oral rehydration solution). Unless the lost salts and fluids are replenished you may become dehydrated. If the urinary frequency comes down it indicates dehydration and calls for additional supplementation of fluids. You could also benefit from taking omeprazole once daily before breakfast.
Please be patient. It may take a few days for the situation to return to normal. Feel free to write back.
Regards
