What to do if your baby is vomiting?

There are many causes of vomiting in babies, so how do you treat this seemingly benign phenomenon?


  • Unlike regurgitation, vomiting is an active release of stomach contents caused by muscle contractions.
  • During the first few weeks of life, your baby will have a tendency to vomit frequently, which is completely normal.
  • The causes can range from poor digestion to a more serious condition, such as an infection or motion sickness.
  • If vomiting lasts longer than 12 hours and is accompanied by fever, dehydration, or poor general health, consult your doctor immediately.

So I go to the ER because I'm having excruciating pain under my rib on my right side, I can't sit up and I'm vomiting. Tell me why the triage nurse asked rudely why did I even come, that it's just the baby kicking my ribs...ok I know what that feels like!!! Anyways ended up getting a ultrasound and it's gallstones!!.. a hour later the nurse comes to my room...no eye contact at all and apologize and says I hope you feel better. No bitch, I hope you feel better!!! Cause you was trying to make me look stupid for crying!! I can't with some health care professionals.

I'm depressed because I don't have the energy to do anything. It sucks...before I was pregnant I was working out almost everyday. Once I started getting symptoms (around 3 months) I've slowed down due to nausea, vomiting, body pains, anxiety, insomnia....ect.. I can go on but I won't. The baby is healthy but my body is tired. I miss my energy and feel guilty with my family for being so tired. I need some energy people... #venting #tiredandcranky #nervous

I please ask for my praying mamas to say a prayer for me. I havent been feeling to good mentally. I allow the enemy to blind me of my blessings at times and as we know he dont let up thats why we have to armour with the Lord at all times. To be completely honest Im scared beyond my thoughts about having a 2nd child and I even prayed for this child. That alone makes me feel like a bad mother. I have anxiety inducing thoughts like how could I ever love another child as much as I love my first son? Will our bond be immediate like my first? Have I done anything wrong during my pregnancy that could've effected him? Will my first son know he will always be my baby? Ive cried off and on today to the point of vomiting.

Went to ob appointment, n I lost 8 pds so now they’re worried about the baby. I’ve been vomiting n not able to keep nothing down the last few days also in lots of pain. My sonogram appointment is May 3, and every week after that until csection. But if baby growth is not as expecting on the 3rd……. Csection will be sooner!!! ????
