So very sorry this is happening.
At three days along, you must get to someone who can help your child NOW.
Please get off line and go to an Urgent Care facility or an ER. At three days along, the child *could* be dehydrated and this is very very serious!!!

I think you should take her to urgent care or the er. I mean if its an ear infection, they will give her an antibiotic, if its the stomach flu, they will run an IV of fluids for a couple of hours, it sounds scary, but you know she wont get dehydrated, and I would quit feeding her unless shes really hungry just give her pedialyte, nothing else to drink but pedialyte. The doctor should understand that vomiting is not normal at all so something is really wrong, even if its just a minor flu bug. Take her in, I too have a 15 month old and he was vomiting and had the runs it turned out to be an ear infection, he got azythromycin and is cured. Thats so simple! I know its so scary when your little peanut is sick and can't really tell you whats wrong, just go to another doctor at the hospital they will be more informative. Good luck!

Find another doctor! A 15 month toddler should not be vomiting for 3 days. Please go and see another doctor or go to the ER to get help. They have meds. that will stop the vomiting. For the future remember that juice is not the best thing for them either. Try pedilite, too much juice will only give them diarrhea. Keep your toddler on very small amounts of a bland diet of bananas, crackers and toasts,and soups with broth. Give out lots of patience with hugs and kisses all the time. Good luck!

Is she only vomiting? Does she have any thing else wrong, fever ect. Also I don't give juice to a sick baby use pedialyte, Juice does not help with dehydration as well as pedialyte. I would also go see a different doctor for a second opinion. What ever you do no dairy products while she is sick it only makes it worse.
Also try this since she is probably not very hungry don't give her a whole cup of pedialyte only give her a table spoon at a time every 10 minutes she will be less likely to bring it back up.

Well juice is important to prevent dehydration but three days is too long in my opinion! Call your child's doctor immediately for an appointment, or consider going to the emergency room.

first off call the doctor and let him know immediately. Then i would probably try giving the baby 1 ounce/ every hour of pediatlyte until your little one can hold onto more than that. Also don't give the child milk for at least 4 days because her stomach might not tolerate it. Also, make sure you only allow her to eat very bland starchy foods to get her system going again....banana's, rice, bread, hope she feels better

3 days is far too long for a child of that age to vomit , get her to the doctor immediately , it could be a number of reasons : tummy bug- it might go , tonsillitis - she will need an antibiotic. In any case you need to find out the exact reason , It is not fair It is not fair to let the child suffer.

If she is unable to keep stuff down and is no longer wetting diapers then I would take her to the ER. There is a nasty stomach flu going around but 3 days is a long time for some one that young.

Its happened to my daughter at 13 months. Take her to the emergency room right now! She can become dehydrated, if she isn't already. Three days is the absolute limit for hoping she will get better. Please go. They gave my baby an IV in her hand and she seemed to get better right away. Its most likely a virus.

Watch for dehydration in your toddler--and try to purchase a over the counter electrolite drink, there are a bunch of different brands at the drug store in the baby aisle.
Or try to get her to drink a poweraide drink like poweraide or one of those exercise drinks--it will replace her fluids more easily.
And try applesauce & soft white bread or white rice--all are easy on the stomach
