Okay, first be calm, because she will take her cues from you. Keep trying your mom's cellphone. In the mean time if there is another family member you can contact try calling them. Throwing up is good, because her body is trying to get rid of whatever is making her sick. Two really important things you will want to check is her temperature, and her water in-take. Feel her to see if she is warm, if you do not know how to take her temperature have that adult help you when you reach them. Sponge her off with a wet rag to cool her down and remove any vomit from her skin. Let her sip water, or sprite. You do not want her to gulp anything. If you have a pedilite popcycle those are great. They will hydrate her quicker with less for her to vomit. Also, try to distract her while you wait for an adult to arrive. Put on some cartoons and try to keep her from thinking about being sick. Make sure she does not start to vomit in her sleep or on her back. You do not want her to choke. If things get really out of control- she starts to dehydrate, her eyes roll back in her head, she has seizures or anything else you think you cannot handle and you still have not reached mom or another trusted adult dial 911 for help.

I cant believe all the people that are telling you to call the er or the doctor. First off calm down. Children throw up even alot. In less ;you think he or she is dehydrated there is not need to go to the hospital. The child probably picked up a bug. She will be fine. Rub her back. Hold her and comfort her when done throwing up. It will stop. Tommorrow will be a better day. Trust me I have a three year old. It will be ok. Wishd I read this sooner. Good luck.

Try to get her to kneel on the bathroom floor in front of the toilet.
Get a cold washcloth and pat her face and neck with it.
Smooth back her hair with your hands, and talk gently to her. Tell her it'll be all right. She just has a tummy ache and after her tummy is empty, she will feel better and will sleep.
Keep re-assuring her.
Then put her in some clean pajamas and hold her in a rocking chair for a while, til she falls asleep.
After she is asleep, 'fraid you are going to have to clean the mess up. Be sure to put something next to her, in case she wakes up and has to throw up again---like a plastic Tupperware container or something.
Good luck!!!

She probably just has an upset stomach, Give her a pail or a pot to throw up into, get a nice cool wash cloth to put on her head.
Don't give her anything to eat or drink.
See if you can find a thermometer and take her temperature. If it is above 100, see if you can find some children's tylenol or Motrin to give her. If it above 102 call her doctor,
Next clean up the mess, let Mom see you are responsible.
If your sis wants, let her rinse her mouth, but on a kid video, and let her lay down on the couch and hopefully will fall asleep.

Think if your sister has had anything different to eat or drink than usual. She may be reacting to something she's had to eat or drink. Look around the room your sister was in before she started to throw up, do you see any open containers she may have drunk from? If not, look, sometimes kids throw up. My son is 3 and if he overeats, he throws up. If he drinks too much, he throws up. If she is not crying or having difficulty breathing, just keep an eye on her. If she has difficulty breathing, is not acting normaly, go find a nieghbor or call one of your friends parents.

First lay sheets or towels on the carpet to keep them from getting too much throw up on them. Then see if you can get her to drink some water. If she throws that up or continues, find her pediatritians number and call. They should have an after-hours number and you can speak to a nurse or someone about the details (how much and often she's doing it, etc.) Keep trying to reach your mom in the mean time. And... try to hold and comfort her.

Wash her off - put a clean wet washcloth on her throat and have her lay a still as possible...where ever she feel comfortable...bathroom floor perhaps its cool which might make her feel better. If you can get to the grocery or drug store (I don't know how old you are) buy some Emetrol.
If she continues to throw up and you still can't reach your mom...call another family member or neighbor /friend who is close to your family.

Does she have a fever? If so, you may want to try to give her some tylenol. If not, there is not much to do for her. DO NOT give her peptabismol or anything b/c it as aspirin in it which is not good. You may also want to try to call your local hospital and as a nurse there to give you advice. Some pharmacies will do the same. But unless she swallowed something toxic, there is not really much to do but hold her hair, give her a cold washcloth, and maybe try a LITTLE bit of water and crackers! good luck!

Well, clean her up, lay her down so she'll be still. Not flat of her back, on her side...(Against the back of the couch) get some type of clear liquid to settle her stomach and keep trying the CELL....

Ask her if she will quiet down and sleep in case you permit her lay down in mom and pa's mattress. If it is a bad thought, grant her your mom's pillow to sleep with. Then ask her to %. out some books you are able to examine her. attempt and clarify to her that as quickly as she wakes up mom and pa would be homestead quickly, yet she desires to flow to sleep as a manner to awaken and characteristic them come homestead. If no longer something works, i might provide in and permit her have the popsicle via fact it is properly well worth the peace top now and you're crushed. it is in basic terms going to reason self-discipline subjects in case you maintain giving in to her tantrums which isn't the subject; it is nearly a different one time factor. If that would not artwork, it's time to grant your mom and father a decision. it may calm your sister down lots to chat to mom and pa on the telephone and characteristic them reason together with her.
