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.

If it is viral, it's not uncommon for the vomiting to last this long.  I know it's scary, but this happens a lot.  The key is keeping him very hydrated using products like pedialight.  You can also always ask for a second opinion if you believe there is more to it than a virus.  My son had a virus around a year old that literally lasted months.  His weight dropped and it was so scary.  However, he is now almost 3 and just fine.  It did eventually run it's course.  Hang in there!

My 18 month old is doing the same thing, going on day 8 of vomiting once every night! He is a happy baby during the day! has a good appetite. I am so exhausted i don't8. know what to do! his DR. keeps saying its viral, I think it's time to get very temperamental and demand they do other tests! this cant be good on him!

I have read through this post several times over the last few months.  My nearly 3 year old has had bought after bought of vomiting without fever etc and generally during the day seems totally normal.  Finally today the doctor sent us for a chest X-ray and the diagnosis was a relief.  Full bowels with no air between.  Generally when they look at the bowels there is pockets of air between the fecal matter but, for him there wasn't any which means he is really constipated.  I was surprised because he had gone poop twice yesterday and wouldn't have guessed that was the issue.  When it is full there is nowhere for the food to go so it sits mostly undigested perhaps not even within the stomach and eventually comes back up.  Makes sense.  Doc prescribed Miralax and we will see how it goes... literally!
