Question

My 21 month old had a stomach bug 9 days ago. He still throws up every night (only once a night). He is eating and having normal bowel movements now. Yes, that's right! Runny nose

Hello ma'am, Does he have any other symptoms like a runny or stuffy nose right now, even a little? Thank you for the information. If not already done, I strongly suggest nasal hygiene with a saline solution (Hydrasense, Sinus Rinse and others), which can be done as often as needed during the day, and at least 30 minutes before bedtime, and followed by suctioning the secretions with a baby fly. Clearing nasal secretions can reduce the backward flow of secretions that often causes coughing. Coughing in the very young can often lead to vomiting, and this is a good way to try to reduce it. It's a little uncomfortable but works wonders! I would also encourage you to give him plenty to drink. I hope I've been helpful, I'm always available if you have any other questions!
