Is this normal? Fever spikes when vomitting

and then drops as soon as they are done?

It's happened twice in the past 3 hours. Just wanted to make sure it's normal.

Re: Is this normal? Fever spikes when vomitting

I would think the vomiting was from the fever spiking rather than the vomiting changin the fever temp.

Think of the fever as the body fighting off infection, raising the body temperature enough to cause an upset stomach & hence vomiting.

I could be completely crazy but that's how I've always thought of it..

Thanks, that makes sense.

She seems fine once she's cleaned up so I wasn't overly worried, but didn't want to neglect it if it was out of the ordinary. Might as well save the late night frantic weekend call to the ped for a real problem.
