Thanks, Kathy,

I gave her 5mg. Melanie suggested that amount and it's the same amount
I gave Willy who weighed a little less than Milly does right now.

I just don't think it could hurt, and it always helped Willy.  I'm not
going to let her go this way the rest of the weekend.  She hasn't
thrown up in over an hour, so i figured it was a good time to get the
pill in.  20 minutes so far and it hasn't come up yet.  I figure if we
can go an hour it should  be absorbed.  i'm going to give subq fluids
only for a while and try to let her stomach settle before trying any
more food.
