Gagging

Anyone else’s 10-month old gagging themselves to the point they throw up?? Our daughter does it daily and we tell her no or grab her hands to try and stop her and she thinks it is the funniest thing and continues to do it; even if we ignore her she does it. How do I make it stop!!! Sincerely, a mom who is tired of cleaning up puke 🤢

Is she using her fingers or objects?

@Jeannette fingers!

Deadpan face say "fingers out of your mouth" gently guide the fingers away. Then distract, redirect, distract, and distract. Repeat FOREVER! At least that's what we had to do for our girl. It worked eventually.

My nephew used to to this don’t react when he does it and try to occupied his bands either some thing else like a toy or utensil

Redirect her to a favorite toy or/and start playing with them as a distraction. Sometimes babies/toddlers do that because they or bored or it’s a comfort thing for them. She will grow out of it!

My son was doing this when no one is paying attention to him. His dad popped his hand and he stopped.
