What Causes Vomiting During Defecation?
My 2 1/2 grandson was having a problem passing his stool since yesterday. I gave him a rectal glycerin suppository which took about 3 1/2 hours to create a bowel movement. He also through up what looked like curdled milk at the same time he pooped. Should we be concerned and take him to the emergency room. His temperature is 99.5 F.

Hi,
Vomiting could be due to straining while passing stool, due to abdomen pressure generated while straining, baby vomited what is there in the stomach.
Since he is having fever so needs to rule out possibility of gastritis. If fever persists, repeat vomiting occurs, notice distension of abdomen, then immediately visit to ER.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
