teething and vomiting link?

[mumtotwinboys]

Hello there Just wondered if anyone else had had a child that seemed to go through a vomiting session when new teeth were coming through, otherwise my boy Luis seems happy and well enough in himself, and though I havent kept a diary it seems that he vomits suddenly after a meal or milk once a day for a few days then another couple of teeth appear. maybe the extra acidity affecting his stomach??

yes, one of mine did this. I think it's pretty common.

Yes, my 16 month old is teething late - getting them all at once! - and he has had several vomiting sessions, usually coinciding with flushed cheeks, grizzling, dribbling etc - obvious teething. DS1 did it too. Don't worry

My DS is the same. From what i can gather from health visitors they tend to get a bit snotty when teething and this leads to vomitting - sorry if tmi

YES, my health visitor said it was rubbish and an old wives tale. However I think it makes total sense that the teething inflames the glands - it certainly inflames the salivary glands, hence the dribbling - and this affects the glands in the stomach causing vomiting and griping pains. Both of mine exhibited it, whatever the HV may have said.
