Vomiting in 1-year-olds is sometimes due to a simple stomach virus or excessive movement, but in these cases you must be careful and seek emergency medical help:
- If there's blood in the vomit (bright red or coffee-ground color)
- If it's bile-colored (bright green/yellow)
- If other warning signs accompany it: fever above 38°C, extreme lethargy/sleepiness, stiff neck, seizures/convulsions
- If the baby hasn't urinated in more than 6 hours (dry diaper), no tears when crying, dry mouth, sunken eyes → severe dehydration signs
- Persistent vomiting lasting more than 24 hours, throwing up every feeding
- Severe belly pain (baby pulling legs to stomach and crying)
- Vomiting that starts after head trauma
- Difficulty breathing, lips turning blue
If any of these apply: don't delay, go to the emergency room or call 112. Vomiting alone usually isn't alarming; what matters are the accompanying symptoms.
