What Could Be The Cause For Vomiting At Night In Infants?

My 4 year old daughter has been throwing up every night for the past week. She is fine during the day and plays , laughs and eats but after being put to bed she wakes up out of a dead sleep and instantly vomits a large amount then goes back to sleep as normal. Do you have any clue what Is causing this ?

Hello,

Please check with gastroenterologist. If she is throwing up partially digested food every night it may be due to achalasia cardia or dysmotility disorders..barium swallow to be done to confirm diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
