Hi guys!
Literally at my wits end now as i feel like such a rubbish mother!
My girl about 6 weeks ago started being randomly sick, we put it down to travel sickness as that is when it first happened.
Then she has randomly started being sick more and more often.
It is usually as she is eating or just finished eating.

Doctor has told me to do a food diary. And we go back next week
Health visitor has said she will probably get referred to a paediatrician

Has anyone at all experienced anything like this?
I have been our for breakfast this morning with friends and my little girl was sick eating scrambled egg and a 'friend' basically said it could be autism!!????? Is that a thing?
Please could anyone give me any suggestions advice
Thank you xxxx

It could be something such as a intolerance/allergy to a specific food group, could be reflux or anything alike. Is it all the time or just with certain foods? This will be why they want you to keep a food diary to try and rule patterns out, certain intolerances etc. Please don't panic, you've done the right thing in seeing a medical professional and leave it for them to discuss with you.
As for your friend saying it could be autism after eaten scrambled egg.. ignore!! What a ridiculous comment to make.
Hope you get some answers soon x

Thanks for your reply,
We thought it was her milk, changed that LO didnt like soya
Then we thought it was egg, she was still sick
We thought it was cheese stopped giving her that, still happened.
She has got a lot worse in the past week and i went back to the doctors yesterday and they have referred my LG. They also have gave us gaviscon. Im praying it works.
It really is getting me down. Nothing worse then not being able to help your child xxx
