1 Year Old Vomiting but No Fever, Runny Nose or Coughing...

Could it be anxiety? Is his dad feeding him anything weird while you are away? Poor you. Hope you get to the bottom of it soon. Good luck!

Hi J.,
I'd get him checked for food allergies. My little boy was projectile vomiting and after a conversation with the doctor, we tracked what he was eating right before. Turns out, he's very, very allergic to tree nuts. VERY ALLERGIC. I really didn't take it seriously until my doctor started in with appointments for an allergist, perscription for an epipen ("Keep it with you at all times"). Scared me at that point! Now we know what to avoid. On top of that, his skin has cleared up as have his ear infections! Knowledge is power!
Hope your little one isn't allergic and it was just a bug, but better safe...
Good Luck.

Hi J.,

He may have a stomac bug which if he does, it will just have to work itself out. Begin giving him a bland diet right away. No milk, no dairy of any kind (accept yougurt that has the live cultures in it such as Activia). No fruits except for bananas. Feed him plan things like pasta, rice, broth, Pedialyte, plan waffle, soup, etc. If he throws up again, give him only a couple of ounces of water. Make aure he can hold this down firt before giving him a whole cup of something. His stomach needs to settle first.

If you have any questions, please send me a message. I've gone through this with my daughter a couple of times. No fun! I hope your little son gets to feeling better very soon!

My 9 month old daughter went through unexplained projectile vomiting as well. First time was right after she woke from afternoon nap when she vomited like "The Exorcist" 5 times in 2 hours. We took her to the emergency room, and dr said it was something that didn't agree with her because she had no other symptoms. Her demeaner was normal and she was her self besides the vomiting. The dr gave some medicine that we opted not to give, skipped her dinner, and the next day was fine. About a week later, she threw up all over her bed at night again, but was fine otherwise. We checked her meals and right before each of her episodes, she had a combination of broccoli and egg yolk. Since then, we haven't given her that combination, and she hasn't done it again.

Basically, maybe it's something your husband is feeding him that he's allergic to, or just doesn't sit well with him? Should definitely still go to the dr and see what he says.

hi-
sorry to hear your little guy is uncomfortable! if he is also having any difficulting pooping or eating you may want to ask your pediatrician to consider looking at his intestines. there is a a condition that can develop (most commonly in infant boys) called pyloric stenosis. check out this link and you can maybe see if the symptoms are the same: http://kidshealth.org/parent/medical/digestive/pyloric_st... - can't hurt to just rule it out.
good luck and i hope your little one feels better soon.

It sounds as if your husband is feeding him something that disagrees with him. I would find out what is going on when you are not there.

My older daughter barfed her way through her early years. Every outfit I owned was stained. The amount of time I spent washing sheets and scrubbing carpets was astounding. She is now 17 and even now occasionally excuses herself from classes and vomits in the bathroom at school. Perfectly healthy, just sensitive stomach, I guess. It happens.

I do question your doctor making a diagnosis without checking the kid out, however. There are plenty of stomach ailments that don't generate flu symptoms. My other daughter had to be treated for gastric reflux when she was 5, and the only symptom was gasping for breath! I would definitely take the kid in to be seen. This has gone on too long without putting your mind to rest.

Hi J.,
How are his bowel movements? Sometimes, constipation can cause nausea/vomiting. Or, like the others have mentioned, it may be something your husband is giving him that he may be allergic to. I hope your little one feels better soon. He's obviously not feeling well if he's very cranky and clingy. Remember to rehydrate him w/water and/or diluted apple juice (not OJ - too acidic) after he vomits. Hope this helps.
Take care, B.

Hi J., my son did the same thing. He had no fever or any other systoms just vomiting. It turned out that he just had a bug but I would take him in and have the Dr. check him. He could have allergies to something or it could be that he is doing that cause he is away from you. Better to be safe than sorry! Good luck! I know how hard it is when they are sick! God Bless you and your family! I hope your little guy feels better!

Hello J.!
please don't take any chances and have him checked for poisoning.

take him to the hospital if your doctor is not responding.
To be sure check your home for anything your baby could get into and eat on accident. - cleaning stuff under the sink, soap, dogfood, glue/craft stuff...etc. my one year old will eat anything if she gets her hands on it!
just have your doctor do more tests! you need to be a bulldog about your babys safety and health. he trusts in you to make sure he is ok.
it sounds sad but when it comes to my children I don't mess around. even if it is the dad. it could be intentional or unintentional.

keep a journal when and how much he vomits, where you are who is taking care of him.

don't wait till there is irreversable damage.

I am thinking of you!

Time to see the doctors, let the expert give you advice

Check out what he's eating - sounds like the beginning of an allergic response to me. Be very diligent on this - allergies are very serious! Good luck

My extremely active 2 year old just went through this last week on Thursday and then Saturday! No other symptoms, just the vomiting and very tired! Sunday he did end up having dirahea, no more vomiting and much more active, but not much of an appetite. No fever at all through any of it. This morning he has woken up active, not as active as normal, but almost there. I actually got him to take a little bit of food for breakfast, but not much, so we will see what the rest of the day brings. Just wanted to share it with you in case your baby does the same thing!

Good luck!

One of my daughters had vomiting sporadically, and it turned out she was lactose intolerant. Anything dairy based would ferment in her stomach, and then after 2-3 days because she couldn't digest it, she'd vomit. We use rice milk now.

My 11 yr old daughter woke up last night in the middle of the night, popped out of bed and sleeped walk yelling out no, no, no... I asked her what's wrong and she was shaking her hands and then grabbed her mouth. By then I could tell that she was going to toss her cookies and took her to the toilet. She was fine after and this morning, doesn't look like she has any problem whatsoever. I kept her home thinking she was sick, but no fever, diarrhea, body achiness, or any other flu-like symptom.

Did you check to see that your husband hasn't been feeding him something different than what you usually give him? And maybe you can Google common symptoms of separation anxiety? Other than that I would take him to the doctor and maybe have a consult.

Good luck.

This will sound stupid. What is he eating or is he eating? What is he drinking?
He may have more than seperation anxiety. Keep track of what he eats and when and how much. Little ones need to drink alot to compensate for the loss when vomiting. If he can not keep water or juice down he needs to go in to the doctor. Ask him if his tummy hurts and where.
The reason isay this is becuase giving kids breads or anything that has wheat products (gluten) is causing problems with kids. Acid reflex can also be a factor. Ask your pediatrian for a referral to a GI specialist.
Watch for weekness and just lining around means he is dehydrated. try ice chips and he refused or vomits take hime to the er for fluids. Call the doctor ahead of time to let them know your taking him in. Let the pediatrician know how worried you are. They forget sometimes just how quickly a child can deteriate when dehydrated. Keep a close eye and if your concern take him in.
