Vomit with no other symptoms - Anxiety?
by dvlosky, Oct 15, 2009 10:55PM
My son is 2 and a half. He recently started to throw up randomly with no symptoms. I called the doctor and the prescribed without seeing him Vazboid? With them thinking it was due to allergies/stuffy nose. Needless to say that did not fix it.
We recently just had a daughter. We still give him as much attention as possible but unfortunately its not the same amount of time when she was not here. Ive looked around the internet and seem a few similar cases. He is underweight for his age. He is also a picky eater (seems like he gets even pickier everyday).
I am going to take him into see the doctor but would like to know if anxiety from the new born could be a reason why this is happening. At first I thought he maybe doing this for attention because right after he throws up hes back to being happy and being normal (after we tend to him and make sure hes okay). But recently we were watching TV with him and he wasnt complaining at all and all of a sudden he threw up.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Daniel

His weight and height is just above the 5th percentile for his age. Some children develop different temporary issues when a second child is born; however, suggest getting him checked by his MD.
