Children vomiting
When vomiting, the muscles that bring your food and drink to the esophagus, stomach and intestines work in opposite directions.
Children vomit much faster and more often than adults. If the vomiting is a one-time, you don't have to worry and you can let the child eat and drink whatever he or she wants.
What is the cause?
- Most childhood illnesses and infections, even the common cold, can be accompanied by vomiting.
- Babies may release some milk during burping after feeding.
- Strong excitement or tension.
What can you do yourself?
When should you see a doctor?
- If vomiting persists.
- If babies vomit violently, it may indicate a problem with the exit from the stomach.

If there are no other symptoms and your child appears healthy, too much sweets or the wrong thing to eat is often the cause.
