Could I just ask - how many times have your children vomited in the past 12 months?

Not including babies obviously

I'm beginning to think my kids are weird!

Only once - she's disgustingly healthy!

Enid · 11/01/2006 18:32

dd1 - three times in entire life, third time at the weekend (fever)

dd2 - retches whenever she smells something 'yucky' and voms copiously whenever she is ill

Enid · 11/01/2006 18:35

dd1 is 6 and dd2 is 3

Gem13 · 11/01/2006 18:38

Never!

DS is 3.5 and DD - 23 months. DS did throw once actually but that was overeating then bouncing when he was 1 ish. Dinner came up whole so it wasn't really a sick thing.

Not at all in the past 12 months ... wait and see they will catch a nasty tummy bug next week.

DD (2) once. And once the year before. But ALL her friends and cousins have thrown up a lot more than that, she just has a cast iron stomach!

ruty · 11/01/2006 19:04

ds 16 months - three times - each time when he ate egg. we avoid it now!

suedonim · 11/01/2006 19:05

Several times yesterday and last night (inc in my bed ) because dd2 has a chest infection but according to her, it's the first time she's been sick for two years.

Hulababy · 11/01/2006 19:08

DD (3y9m) - I don't think DD has been vomited at all in the past year. I can only vaguely remember her being sick once ever TBH.

Piffle · 11/01/2006 19:16

LIZS · 11/01/2006 19:33

ds(7) once or twice
dd(4) about 6 times, a significant improvement lol

Aloha · 11/01/2006 19:39

Lots. Actually dd vomited all over me this evening, and ds vomited twice. Apologies for anyone wondering what the spaghetti bolognese is doing on the pavement outside the Horniman museum.
Been a bad 12months for vomiting bugs here.

jane313 · 11/01/2006 19:46

My ds has mild reflux as a baby and now whenever he coughs badly he vomits. Am getting much better at catching it now.

LIZS · 11/01/2006 19:56

ditto dd, jane313, hence our "improvement" !

megandsoph · 11/01/2006 20:01

mine have been sick about 4 times each in the last month.

Apart from the raisin intolernce I'm sure dd2 has got they both have had at least 2 bugs and been quite poorly with them.

In the last year gosh about 7

megandsoph · 11/01/2006 20:03

Aloha · 11/01/2006 20:04
