How old is your baby?
Any fever?
How long has this been going on?
Any medicines that you have tried?
Any stomach pain?
I am a pediatrician, and would like to help,

Hi Dr Gupta.

The baby only started talking of a "bug in her belly" about 3 hours ago. She hasn't been on any medication, nor does she have a fever. Aside from the ginger ale she spit up after drinking it, she hasn't had anything since last night around 10pm when she took her bottle. Her bowel movements are normal, and she's voiding liquids normally.

She is 2. She's just spit up again, and her mucus looks like the whites of a raw egg.
