My baby (9 months) is vomiting excessively. Since yesterday be it breastmilk, formula, crackers, each time it came up.
Do I need to call the Dr or will this pass on its own?
How do I know when she is dehydrated?

I'm not an experience mother so I could be wrong, but I think it never hurts to call the doctor.

My son had that a few times. I'd advise you to stop all solids and just give breastmilk and pedialite if you are afraid he might get dehydrated. As long as he has three wet diapers a day he should be fine. If he gets listless or stops peeing or refuses to drink anything thas more of an issue.
Of course, call your doc anyway if you are nervous.

If you call the Dr, he will be prepared for doing more if needed. Please err on the side of caution and call. Hugs.

he prob has a bug. to tell if a child is dehydrated push on the top of their finger, if the skin goes straight back to the normal colour they are not dehydrated. also when my daughter had a stomach bug around that age I was told to give pedialite, 10ml every ten mins. little and often is the way to do it. and also if they want to have formula or breastmilk to give it even if they throw up. ( I was told this by the childrens hospital where I live)
