could my son have acid relfux because he is only 15 months old and the only time he throws up is between 12 am and 5 am
Yes. My son is 15 months old. He began vomiting at night when he was 11 months old. We started him on zantac. He stopped throwing up but kept waking crying. The very day the doctor prescribed prevacid he slept all through the night and has since.
I would say yes, my son had it when he was a baby, and he threw up mostly at night or after a feeding. I would have his pediatrician check it out. My son grew out of it. He had to take some pills for awhile and it really helped him. the pills had little beads in them and we mixed it with his food.
My son did this after eating and if he over ate. So is he getting too much food maybe? If not, I would say yes, my son is 34 now and he still has acid reflux and he even had to have stomach surgery due to his esophagus being messed up.
So, get it check out. You might prevent him from having more trouble when he is older. When my son was his age, they didn't know about this type of things in kids.
Take care and good luck.
He could also be throwing up at night if he's having a lot of drainage from his nose.
Snot and mucus isn't digestable, so when a little one is laying down it all goes into their stomach and sometimes the body just chooses to throw it up rather than have it go through the digestive system.
Good luck, make sure he's getting plenty of water! :)
My daughter was being sick, thought she had a bug, she may have but then I noticed a back tooth!! they can be a bit poorly due to teeth cutting thru.. this may not be the case for you but it was something I didn't consider until I saw the tooth, looked it up about teeth and it said it can cause vomiting and diahorreah.. best to take him to your doctor tho to double check things.
