Kids’ Stomach Bug Video Visits in Utah

Stomach bugs spread fast through Utah schools and daycares, especially in winter. Most vomiting and diarrhea in kids is caused by a virus and gets better in a few days. The most important job is keeping your child hydrated, and a video visit can help you do that with confidence.

When to go in person or call 911

  • No pee in 8 hours (fewer than 4 wet diapers a day for babies), no tears, or a very dry mouth
  • Green or bloody vomit, blood in the stool, or black stool
  • Severe or constant belly pain, especially low on the right side
  • A child who is very sleepy, hard to wake, or confused: go to the ER or call 911
  • Vomiting after a head injury, or any vomiting with fever in a baby under 3 months

What helps at home

  • After vomiting, wait 15–30 minutes, then offer small sips: a teaspoon or two every few minutes
  • An oral rehydration solution from the pharmacy works best; slowly increase the amount if it stays down
  • Keep breastfeeding or formula feeding babies, in smaller, more frequent feeds
  • Bring back regular food once vomiting slows down; no special diet is needed
  • Wash hands well, especially after diaper changes and before meals

How a video visit can help

  • Check for signs of dehydration on camera, like a dry mouth, sunken eyes, and energy level
  • Review how much your child is drinking and peeing
  • Make a step-by-step fluid plan for tonight
  • Advise on school and daycare return (usually 24 hours without vomiting or fever)
