2 year old vomiting at night

[Crystal77521]

My daughter is two years old and this past Sunday she woke up vomiting. At the time we thought that most likely she had gotten into some bad food because her Father had picked her up a chicken tenders kids meal late that night when the place was about to close. Well she fell back to sleep that morning and when she woke back up she was fine. She was playing and running and laughing all day. She even rode a carousel! Well that night (Sunday)while she was sleeping she threw up again. She also threw up when she woke up that morning. When I say she's throwing up I'm not just talking about a small amount like spit up she is throwing up a lot. Well after she threw up that first time monday morning she was fine again all day and just as happy as could be. Again on monday night and Tuesday morning she threw up again.
I have been nursing my daughter every since she was born and I'm wondering if there is any way possible that somehow my milk is making her sick. She nurses a little during the day still but mostly at night because she sleeps in the same bed with me. She uses it to go back to sleep when she wakes up and to fall asleep in the first place. I don't think that it is the chicken anymore because it seems like that would keep her sick all day and not just at night. Thanks for any help you can give.

My 2 yr old grand son has been throwing up at night; right after drifting off to sleep for the last couple of months. He does occasionally do this during the evenings also; but rarely. I think it happens at night because his esophagus/flap is relaxed and he has acid reflux. He is going to the doctor next week. He was very colicky as an infant and was, in fact, prescribed Previcid/Zantac. I believe he needs it now!

I was having BAD reflux a year ago about every night. The kind that makes you think you are going to throw up in the bed. Well, I started drinking lactose-free milk and have not had ONE episode since! Simple!

hello ~ just want to folllow up here as when i was researching this it seemed severals had encountered this but no one came back to post resolutions.  after 15 nights my daughter seems to have "outgrown" this.  we've had 2 good nights.  we are having her sleep on a wedge pillow but her diahrhea has disappeared so i feel like she is back to good.  guess it was just a very strange stomach bug....

hopefully we get some answers soon! we are going on 2 weeks of this and it continues.  2 times we went 48 hours w/o her throwing up but she did have some diahrea those days.  i'm scared, exhausted, etc.!

This is completely killing me, the same is happening to my son, he started off with a stomach bug, which we both had, but i was fine after 24 hours, now he seems to be throwing up just the once but nightly, he went 48 hours without being sick but its started again, he did have a viral throat infection and is being sick after coughing, called the emergency out of hours tonight and they believe its him trying to attention seek and get into our bed?! hes 2 years and 8 months old. Its so draining and devastating to see, completely fine during the day and then sick as a dog during the night. Im scared to fall asleep in case he wakes up crying, its just slowly sucking the life out of me. They made me feel like i was half lying about his symptoms when i called tonight, im so relived to find im not the only one who is going through this. I just want my baby boy back, because i know its scaring him and he isnt getting a full nights sleep.
