My little boy has hypotonia which has caused reflux since he was born. Even now he's 2.5yrs old and when eating his meals he gags and sometimes food comes back up. This is totally normal for him, I'd say that at least 5 days out of 7 he's vomits a little bit after eating, or sometimes after eating BF too much simply leaning forward while playing can make some food come back up. He is unbothered.
He started at nursery in September, only two days a week, but he's been sent home for "vomiting" at least once every other week since he started. They've just called me again, it's their policy we have to go and get him.
None of the other times they've sent him home has he actually had a bug, it's just his reflux. Im now getting so annoyed every time they send him home, such a waste of money! And I'm heavily pregnant and it's the only break I get him being at nursery.
I'm sure when he's a bit sick it's his reflux, it's not like he's projectile vomiting or is crying and upset them vomits. But what can I do? I understand it's the policy, but it happens almost daily at home so is normal for him and us.
We're strapped for cash as it is I hate the waste of money, and it's left me in tears this morning as I only dropped him off two hours ago, now I've got to go and get him.
