Should I be worried? My son has sicked up baked beans (whole!) from last nights tea!

He is obviously not well.

But I cant believe those baked beans have sat in his stomache for that length of time.

I am worried now that he may have a blockage or he has swallowed a toy, so that the food is not getting through.

Am I worrying unnecessarily. He doesnt appear to be in any pain, just listless and laying on the floor now.

BTW he is 4 years old

I wouldn't worry - it's amazing how long food can sit undigested in tummies when you've got a bug

Keep his fluids up

Hope he feels better soon! (and he didn't sick them up on anything light-coloured)
