18-month-old and car-sickness?
My 18-month-old sister, for the past few days, has started throwing up in the car on the way to daycare and spiking a low-grade fever. She's also more fatigued (she's napping as I type this, two and a half hours before her usual nap time) and irritable. We called the pediatrician, who told us they'd call back with a nurse who could helps us. When she called back, the nurse told us it was car-sickness and nothing to be worried about. I know she's not too young to have motion sickness, but wouldn't this have shown up before now? She's never had a problem before this week with the 40-minute car ride from her house to daycare. And what about the fatigue and fever? Could it be that she just doesn't like daycare (she started last week)? And if it is car-sickness, what to give her to alleviate it? I get motion-sickness myself, but the medicines I use couldn't be good for an 18-month-old. Help?

The fatigue can be from motion-sickness, but it shouldn't cause a fever...I'd give it a few more days and then call back if it continues. If it is car-sickness, her ped. should be able to recommend something.

From the time the airplane become taxing down the runway till the seatbelt gentle got here off, she become eating. as quickly via fact the descent started out till the airplane touched down, she become additionally eating. in the experience that your daughter makes use of a pacifier, that could additionally are available in obtainable. For the flight, I had some snacks (and chocolate) for a manage and to maintain her busy. additionally if she likes being examine to or colouring in and so forth, take some products alongside to maintain her entertained. the only worry I had become belting her in for landing as she did no longer had to be tied down after with the ability to head around yet 2 element helped this. One become to distract her with some thing else jointly as discreetly strapping her in and the different become to show out all the interesting issues out the window which she additionally enjoyed. stable luck.
