Yes!! acually i used to suffer from this when i was a little kid! being in a bus for like 3 hours could make ne sick . i remmember when i was 16 , i went with my friends to sharm el sheikh on a 9 hours journey by a bus , vomited & vomited till i was unable to stand as my blood pressure went down so far that i even couldnt see well!! after becomming a doctor now , i realized the reason for that & the causes!!:)
anyway, b4 any activity of that kind u should give him 1 or 2 tablets of dramamine , just 2 hours b4 the ride & he will certainly enjoy it!
dont worry when he is all grown up , he won't suffer from it anymore , as that what happened to me! yet , it still could happen again:)
remmember , no grauntees in life!!;)

Ohhhh yes!
At American Adventure there is this ride that's an octopus and on each of its tentacles is a carriage. Well it starts spinning round and your carriage goes up and down. It was fine at first but about half way through the ride it was suddenly "uh-oh"!
Needless to say when I got off I needed to sit down. At this point I was white as a sheet and my stomach felt like a washing machine. I tried to drink some citrus Oasis to calm my stomach. Big mistake. I only just made it to the care park before I barfed up my entire stomach contents. Thanks to the Oasis it was bright yellow. I felt sorry for the guy who has to clean it up!
PS. I was about 12-13 at the time. It is perfectly normal. It's kind of like car/motion sickness. It's nothing to worry about and most people grow out of it. I barely get car sickness any more but years ago I couldn't go for an hour without getting queasy.

Sorry to hear your son was sick. I became sick many times on many rides. You must avoid eating anything except crackers and toast, especially if the day is hot. But drink plenty of fluids which contain electrolytes. I think Gatorade is good but I don't know. When I go to an amusement park, I usually carry bottles of Pedialyte. That's intended for babies but it's also good for adults, according to my doctor.

Yeh on the waltzers years ago, the guy who worked on them fancied my mate and thought he was doing us a favour by spinning us all the time. When i got off I couldn't walk straight, my friend said I went an awful shade of green and then........................yeh you guessed I was sick everywhere.
Never been on a ride that goes round since but I am fine on rollercoaster type rides, or absolutely great on "Tower of Terror" at one of the disney theme parks. That's my favourite ride ever.

I never have, but there's a first for everything. You should indicate how old your son is. If it's just nausea, that's pretty normal for many.
