Teething
Is it normal for babies to be sick more frequently when they’re teething? My little boy is 4 months old and has started teething this week and has also started being sick more frequently. Not sure if it’s related or maybe because he’s using his teethers more and sticking his hands in his mouth and activating his gag reflex?

My little boy was never really sick whilst he was teething, so it must just be because he is putting his hands in his mouth. Either that or his milk is upsetting his tummy.
My little boy got sick while teething
So far, my son has been sick the week before a tooth has come through. I was told it's quite common by the GP. Due to lowered immune system and, as you've said, putting hands and everything else in their mouth.
