[quote=Anonymous]Not sure how old your son is, but when my DD was young our ped thought she had something called “cyclic vomiting syndrome”. This lasted from ages 2-3ish until she was around 7 maybe? Episodes occurred every 1-3 months and were very short lived (usually vomiting 1-2 times , then it would pass within 6-8 hours with no food/drink). Always happened at night and then she was fine in the morning. No one else in the household, including her twin, would be ill.

The ped did not pursue it further because there was no real need to do so, given the relative infrequency. Also it was very difficult to really diagnose whether it was this syndrome, or a gastrointestinal bug. She seemed to grow out of it. Ped said something about it being associated with being prone to migraines in the future. I never researched further but you may want to look into it? We did try to write down foods etc in a diary but never found any real correlations with anything that could’ve been triggering it. If memory serves, I always suspected it had something to do with what she did or did not eat before bed, and the timing of bedtime. But it was a long time ago!

DD is currently 17 and very very healthy. The whole thing was quite odd.

Hope you get it figured out! [/quote]
