WWYD? Sending home throwing up child???

.................... ...........

Yep I would. Like you, the first time, I can dismiss as eating too fast, running around outside too hard, something not sitting right in his belly, but second time, I would make a call too.

Send the child home!

Yup. You did the right thing. Regardless if it is viral....you cannot go around cleaning up throw up. If a child is throwing up due to screaming, or playing hard, or whatever...I don't second guess. You've earned a ticket out of daycare for the day :wave:

Throw up = go home regardless of the reason

I would have done the same as you. The first throw up I would have chalked it up too hard crying but 2nd time would have gotten a phone call for pick up. Fever and throwing up are 2 different things and don't always go hand in hand so no fever would make no difference to me.

I would have done the same too :)

Any of my dcks go home as soon as they vomit at daycare. I wouldn't even wait for a second round. It's unsanitary and I don't want to have it in the carpet, house and risk making others sick.

I am not sure that there has to be a fever. We had a stomach flu go through the daycare a couple of years ago and there was no fever....just a lot of suffering :no:;)

I would do the same !! I would prob think the first was from crying but after the second bout I would have them ready for pick up ! I think any sick child needs to be at home !

Yup. Vomit = home time. It's not up to me to diagnose the reasons. :)
