ok moms, I need advice. my 2 yr old has been acting fine, no fever or anything else. BUT monday evening he woke up happy with vomit in his crib! we gave him a drink & later even crackers- he wanted food. he ate the crackers & even a chicken patty & was fine . it stayed down & he slept the night, was fine all day tues & wed all normal poops & no vomiting. so we figured since we saw one of his 2cd molars cut it's probaly teething or he gagged himself as i did once see him sticking his finger to touch his new & soon to be new teeth & kinda almost gag once. he was fine all day today again & went down for a nap woke up in vomit! we havent seen him vomit for either of these times since he was alone so not sure. again, same deal he drank , ate & 2 hrs later was in bed & that was 5 hrs ago & no sign of vomiting or problems. can this be a virus? i have read some say odd toddler viruses that they only get sick @ night & keep food down all day? But that seems really weird to me & hard to believe. he is hydrated obviously since he only did it 2x in 4 days & held everything else down & no fever so we arent about to rush him anywhere but this is kinda weird & concerning.any advice is appreciated.
thanks gals! as far as the chart of what he is eating it;s a smart idea & we thought of it but he has no new foods in his diet =/ he actually ate lighter on the days it happened. still unsure if its due to his molars some people are against that theory. I'm a pretty new mom he is my only one & just 2 yrs & never had a belly bug so im unsure but I do find this hard to belive this is a virus as you said. I can't wait til teething is done & he can TELL me what is wrong LOL thanks!
i also feel so guilty, i clean & care for him when he did it but I have a phobia of getting sick & I worry its contagious =O this is so hard for me as selfish as that sounds hope u understand =)
