If your baby is vomiting while they are teething, it could be an infection or food allergy:
– Expected signs of teething include swollen gums, drooling, loss of appetite, crying and chewing on objects to relieve the discomfort of baby teeth trying to push through the gum.
– Vomiting is not a typical sign of teething; is it lasts for 12 hours or is accompanied by a temperature it’s advisable to seek medical advice.
– Your dentist can advise on easing the discomfort of teething.
“Parents and caregivers can usually treat teething at home using simple remedies, such as cold compresses and massage.”
