I guess I should have specified- this is my DOG!
My child would have already been to the Hospital...

Please take that child to the pediatrician as soon as possible. She may have a virus and you don't want her to get dehydrated. In the meantime give her small amounts of juice, water, pedia lyte so she won't dehydrate.

You need to take your baby in for a sick visit to Emergency Room. Any cough should be checked out by a physician. Since a cough can be a sign of a serious condition.
The vomiting and diarrhea can dehydrate your baby if you're not putting electrolytes back into her system. Try giving your baby some PediaLyte. Diarrhea and vomiting more than likely means that the baby has a virus. If your baby is still vomiting and has diarrhea after a week, I would most definitely try to get the baby in to the doctor's Immediately. If your baby isn't eating she is sick, that is one thing that physcian uses to determine how sick a child is, and you don't want her to start losing weight...But with the flu season coming and viruses like RSV, I would most definitely keep an eye on your baby's cough. Since a cold can aggravate congestion in a baby, and it can flare up suddenly...and require breathing treatments....It's best to have your baby examined, and to keep an eye on any lingering viruses, and cold symptoms.
Remember your child is an infant, and can't speak for herself....Please have her examined immediately.

The baby might have acid reflexes. My niece is one and we just found out that's what she had. Its like every time she ate something she would be alright for a minute, but she would start coughing and then she would just throw up everything she just ate. We had to put her back on baby food just to see what would happen and she digest that and she would be alright no coughing or vomiting

You got to go to the doctor, otherwise her body will be dehydrated. Give Pedialite (you can buy over the counter) it is like water with salt and sugar.. You shoud give her lot's of liquids and warm soup. Wish you the best.

I hope this isn't a real question. But if it is...get her to a doctor. A child that is vomitting and has diarreha can get dehydrated quickly.
