Throwing up blood
by: Baby Help Line (Paula)

Hi Christina,

A baby can sometimes throw up and it is tinged with blood from a nose bleed or from teething. But if you can't explain the blood or it is more abundant that a few drops, you should call the doctor. If there is a lot of blood in the vomit or if it is dark brown, like coffee grounds, the advice is to take your baby to the emergency room. Try to collect a sample of the vomit and bring along to the ER or doctor.

Actually, unless you can be sure that the blood derives from the mouth, at least call your baby's doctor for advice.

I hope it is not serious and you get it sorted out quickly.

Warm regards,

Paula
