Stop feeding them the rich food. The kids can't tolerate it. You might like exotic food but they obviously aren't coming around to your idea. Try something a bit more bland. Potatoes mashed and some sausages. Meat and three veges, things like that.

It's KIDS eating LAKSA people! Geez even I don't like spicy food. Can you not even consider that their palates are not ready for that crap? Change their diet and you will see less vomiting.

The worst thing you can do to a child is "show" them how embarrassed you are in public with them....Vomiting is an involuntary occurrence, especially in children. You are the adult here and they are your babies. When you get over anxious they feel it immediately and it will only exacerbate (increase their stress) in the situation. I am not telling you you can't feel the way you do but I am definitely saying,,,YOU DON'T SHOW IT TO THE CHILDREN...EVER. You don't have to be embarrassed they can't help it obviously. OK, enough of that...let's get down to the problem.
If all three of your children do this there may very well be a genetic reason... It could also be an allergy, like wheat/gluten. the condition for this is call Celiac disease.
If the "standardized" doctors don't know what's wrong don't allow them to put the children on ANY meds for this...
I would recommend taking the children to a CERTIFIED NUTRITIONAL THERAPIST. And since all three are exhibiting the same problem you can do this one of two ways. Ask the CNT for a price break OR only take in the one child that is doing this the most and start there.
Until you find a qualified person....try reducing the size of the meals...You have to be concerned about these little ones getting dehydrated and malnourished if they cannot keep their food in their tummys... If you set them up on a 2 hour schedule and split the quanity of the meal (at the first meal) then you won't be "cooking" all the time...Just prep a meal and then use containers to split/save until their needed.
Also take them off of ALL sugar... Sugar is a drug and is addictive. Don't use fruit juice either, it's too high a sugar content anyway and they should drink water. You might even try not letting them drink when they eat and see if this makes a difference. They could drink liquids 30 minutes after the meal and not 30 minutes before the next meal.
Also take them off of all "processed foods" it's very possible their little bodies are not "handling/processing" this FAKE food.
I'm going to give you a website that might be able to help you.
It's www.doctorsfornutrition.com
There is some excellent information in a FREE -ebook that you can download. They are selling a product as well but I don't remember if it's for children. I have ordered this product for myself and am quite anxious to add to my regime.
I hope for all the best in this situation for you and you babies.

Child Vomiting After Eating

2016-11-06 23:09:56 · answer #3 · answered by Anonymous · 0 0

This just isn't normal for them to be vomiting after so many meals. People just don't do that so something must be wrong here. They could have a defect somewhere in their stomach, esophagus, or intestines. Maybe it's allergies to something they eat frequently. Maybe they are eating too fast or too much.
Are they overweight? If so give them less to eat. If that's not it you could try taking away one of the foods you normally give them one at a time. Withhold one of the foods for a week and see if the vomiting stops. The following week try a different food. Keep going till you go through them all. Are they making themselves throw up? Watch them and see if they do anything to make themselves vomit.
Failing all that, it may just be a congenital defect. It that's it, you'd just have to take them to a doctor who actually cares about finding out what's wrong with them.

There are MANY reasons that this could be happening, and there is no way for anyone here to diagnose your kids without seeing them. I presume you've taken them to doctors from what you say here, but you need to keep doing it until you find out what is wrong. You also said they did it at a restaurant, which would appear to rule out the cleanliness of your home. That said, if your house is dirty, then that might be your problem. Perhaps you need to have the house itself checked for any parasites, asbestos, or fecal matter in the walls or water. If not, you need to get these kids into the doctor and get this straightened out. The problem is not likely the children's fault, so basing your future childbearing on this issue is silly.

If all else fails, then you need to ask yourself an important question: are your children happy? Have they been abused? Molested? Do you and your husband fight a lot? Is their environment loving and safe? This is no joke. If things are not good at home, then it can make your children seriously ill. If this is an issue, then you need to seriously look into your options for correcting the situation pronto. The health of your children is seriously at risk. If things are hunky-dory at home, however, then I'd take them into every specialist I can until I found out what was wrong. It could be something serious.

Good luck!

My son (2yrs+) vomitted once due to gastric flu and after that, he enjoy vomitting for no reason. Eventually, he found no fun in it and stop doing that after almost 6 months. He was never feed with laksa of course nor other rich food. Which I don't think is advisable for young kids.
Just bear with it and it soon will be over.

Usha, you are pushing too hard. It is scientific fact that instead of eating lot of food at one time, it is always better to have in small intakes.
Avoid spicy and oily foods and try for some dry food (not dry fruits).
Avoid drinking water at the time of meal.Let them drink water at least 1/2 hour before or after the meal.
Don't allow them eating sweet foods after the meal or at the end of the meal. Let them eat sweets in between the course.
And use reading Indian books related to Ayurveda, you will get enough information.

You're joking, right?

You're embarrassed? You're sick of them? It's on your nerves?

Ok, you don't need help here, you need serious mental help. Children vomit due to HEAlTH or STRESS issues, which from the sound of it, you're causing.

Anyway, for most everyone who reads this question, please realize this is probably just some moron making a joke. But you know what? This is sick. Anyone who can tak about kids who are sick, especially that is supposed to be a mother? Should be taken out, drawn and quartered.

Try feeding them a particular diet for 1week and monitor them.. them.. another type of foods and monitor the results, keep a record by writing down comments after every meal.. it could bwe they are irritated by certain types of foods.. in a month u may know what foods make them vomit and try substituting them with other alternatives of the same nutritional value.. am sure.. it cant b everything that makes them vomit.. also consider monitoring their portions.. make them smaller and frequent...

They may have Celiac disease, a digestive disorder. They may also have unknown food allergies. A good test is the Immuno One Bloodprint. It may be worth a trip to a gastroenterologist. Try a gastroenterologist instead of a "regular" doctor.

Parents should be CONCERNED and GET ANSWERS. Not feel embarassed and irritated.
