My 17 month old daughter has throw up 5-6 times within an hour to an hour and a half. She was acting completely normal before. Has had normal amounts of diapers and eaten well today. My friend told me, her her 2yr old was throwing up and had diarrhea for a couple days about a week ago. And the emergency rooms around me are just terrible I hate going there. So my question is, should I be worried and take her to the emergency room or should I be worried and take care of her at home.
