I'm sure you could, maybe water it down and call her doctor.

I had to give my daughter Pedialite when she was only 2 months old. Make sure you stop the milk/formula and take her to the doctor as soon as you can. There is this stomach virus that is going around.
Hope she feels better

A two month old baby can take Pedialite so your answer is yes, I know I gave it to my daughter at that age and she's 22 now. Of course with her Doctors consent.

yes u give ur 7 mo. old pedialyte it will not hurt her it is prob. da best thing u can do for her right now, bcuz it restores all of da fluids she's been spitting up and they actually have a new type in grocery stores in da baby aisle next to pedialyte(i forgot da name of it) u actually just screw on her regular bottle top and give it to her straight from da bottle so she feels like she drinking a regular juice bottle. MY son will be 7 mo. on feb 29 and has already taken it, and it worked just fine. But still get in touch w/her pediatrician.

I'm sure the pedialite is fine, but you should call your doctor and make an appt., she might be really sick and need some stronger antibiotics, you can never be too careful, my neice had the same symtoms it turned out that she had meningitis

Yes! Yes! Yes and do it soon. I'm an EMT and babies can dehydrate quickly. You should have done it yesterday or when the symptoms occured. Danger and connections with the fever and dehydration. Get into the doctor if needed.

i would call her doctor right away.when my kids were that small and sick their ped would tell me to call him if a fever went over 100.5 degrees. every ones kids are different so--if your baby is eating table food try some apple sauce, if your baby is still strictly on formula---that might be whats making her sick.....have you ever had a fever and drank milk? i was always taught that when you have a fever avoid any dairy products. my peditrican always told me to watch the amount of time my kids would pee in one day...if it was less than 6 times then they weren't getting enough to drink. (he said that that rule goes for the summer months too).
if it was me i would giver her the pedilite, some infant motrin, and call the doctor.

I would give her the pedialyte and no formula for several hours after her last vomiting instance. The pedialyte will keep her hydrated. If she doesnt keep it down then you should check with the doctor as she needs to be hydrating or she will get even sicker.

sounds like the flu. My son had it at four months doc said I could give him pedialite, watered down coolaid, or jello. Just choose a lite color because its not pretty coming up.

Yes. She probably has a virus but you really should take her to the doctor, especially if she has a fever and can't keep anything down.

I would give her the pedialyte - as much as she'll drink in small amounts, frequently - start with a teaspoon or eyedropperful every 10 minutes.
If you aren't getting wet diapers from her, she needs to see the doctor ASAP.
