MY 15 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER OVER THE LAST 2 WEEKS HAS THROWN UP ON AVERAGE TWO TO THREE TIMES A WEEK. EATING AND DRINKING EXACT SAME THINGS ON VOMITING DAYS AND NON VOMITING DAYS, SO I DOUBT IT IS AN ALLERGY. IT IS PROJECTILE TOO, SO DOESN'T SEEM LIKE REFLEX, NOT TO MENTION IT WOULD BE MORE CONSISTENT. SHE WILL BE FINE, START VOMITING OUT OF NOWHERE SEVERAL TIMES, THEN BE FINE. COUPLE DAYS LATER, SAME THING. NO FEVER, RASHES, DIARREAH, OR ANYTHING ELSE. WHAT IS GOING ON?

Hi Monkeybug83 and Welcome!

How frustrating for you and your daughter!

Does she complain of tummy pain before vomiting? Is she vomiting food or bile/liquid?

Please contact her doctor to have this evaluated, unfortunately it is impossible to guess what's going on over the internet.

It may be helpful for you to keep a symptom/food/activity journal (similar to this one ) for the doctor to have a clear picture of what's going on.

In the meantime, this information, Nausea and Vomiting , may be of interest. About half-way down the page vomiting in children is discussed.

I hope you find answers soon and please keep us posted,
Elizabeth
