Narrative:
During final approach to land at den, a child passenger was getting ill and our #2 flight attendant got out of her seat to get the child a sick bag. Apparently she was out of her seat when we touched down firmly due to a 30 KT gusting crosswind. This caused her to twist her back and she went out sick on the last leg of her sequence.
