Night time vomiting

[Guest guest]

Carolyn,

 

Twenty five years ago, we had the same problem with our son. It would take me

longer to get his stomach settled and he would miss a couple of days of school.

He would be ok and a few days later, it would start in again. Dr. kept putting

him on antibiotics and that didn't help. Finally took him to a pediatrician and

he told me to get baby aspirin and give him 2 with every meal. I did this for

maybe a month. Packing a lunch for school, I put the aspirin in his thermos of

juice. The aspirin blocked some endorphins that were causing this to happen.

Not having a medical mind, you will have to have someone else explain this to

you.

For about the past month my 8 year old son has been vomiting at night.

Sometimes two nights in a row, then not for three or four nights, then

one night, then not, etc. I have tried to find ties, e.g., timing of

supper, what he ate, what he did all day, but nothing seems to be a

consistent catalyst. He has vomited as early as 10:30pm and as late as

5 in the morning. Sometimes all his supper, sometimes only a little

bile. Often he vomits twice about 90 minutes apart, then sleeps

soundly
