Okay moms. I'm a little on the worried side right now. I'm even debating carrying my 9 month old 1 away to see a pediatrician because our normal office is closed on Saturday and our local hospital doesn't have them on hand. The past few days has been a little weird. My child is acting normal for the most part, her stools are normal but she has been spitting up a little more than usual, in slightly larger volumes, but it hasn't appeared to be vomiting because it isn't forceful. She has been sleeping more than usual, but it is restless sleep and she hasn't been eating as much either. She also will sometimes just fuss and I can't figure out why. I want to know what wrong with my child.

Does it seem like silent reflux?

I don't know what that is and she has never had a problem with it before.

I would definitely NOT take her to the ER. It will be a huge waste of time--they will not be able to diagnose her with such vague symptoms and you risk exposing her to really sick people. Honestly it doesn't sound out of the range of normal to me. I would keep an eye on it. She could just be sleepy because she's going through a growth spurt, and my son goes through phases where he spits up a lot for no reason.

Well she is up playing fairly normal now so I hope she is alright. My mother in law thinks her two top teeth might be coming in which can cause more mucus which can cause more than normal spit up and I read that sometimes teething can make it seem like they have a cold. @ciraclesmiracle Right now she is just over there making strange grunting noises which makes me wonder if she is pooping.

Yes, that's absolutely true. They can even get a low grade fever from teething (like 99.9). Just keep an eye on her and if anything changes dramatically take her in, but it sounds like teething or a growth spurt to me.

She just had an kind of blow out diaper which is a little watery but she also has been giving me lots of solid stools in little bits at a time. But this time it was a lot and a little watery. My mother in law said it was probably her getting out all the random sugary crap my aunt fed a couple days ago. @ciraclesmiracle

Also, teething can cause diarrhea.

@ciraclesmiracle that's what my mother in law said too. I'm just terrified of vomiting so I'm always scared she has a bug.
