Answer:

Put the child or infant on his or her back when vomiting has stopped.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not the recommended position for a child or infant who is vomiting. It is recommended that the child or infant be held in an upright position, or in a semi-reclined position with their head slightly elevated.
