More sick..teething?

My baby is 8 months old.

He’s always been a sicky baby, however the last 2 weeks or so he’s been sick more and more frequently and then the last 2-3 days it’s like a little bit forceful when he’s been sick after a bottle and then quite a few times after he will spit up odd amounts.

I’ve just had a look in his mouth as the drool has been EXCESSIVE. Crazy amounts.

do you think he’s cutting his first teeth? I’m not so sure 😫

can teething/ drool cause excess sick?

Teething can increase reflux. It produces extra dribble and that increases reflux.
If you have started weaning it's also possible that it's food related. Some foods trigger reflux too. It might be worth keeping a diary of foods and sickness to see if there's a common food.

@Superscientist yes the drool has been crazy! Poor thing. I’m hoping that’s the reason.

yes we are well into weaning, but the sick usually starts after his first morning bottle before breakfast. He’s sometimes sick after solids but only like a wet burp amount, not forceful like it is after his milk and we’ve been on the same one since 3 months old xx
