Reflux or eating disorder?



When my 4yr old daughter sits down for meals she says she has the "hiccups" then she vomits or attempts to. I don't know what to do sometimes it will be up to 3 days that she won't eat more than a couple bites of fruit. She started this shortly after she turned 3. Her pediatrician blew me off when I asker her what to do.I think I need a new doctor. Please Help!

If your daughter is four, I would think it a reflex, because I think she is to young to have an eating disorder. I would find a new doctor.
Offer her healthy foods at mealtime....She will eat when she is hungry. As long as she is gaining weight no need to worry.
Please see a new doctor that other one sounds like a quack.
i would say reflux
personal experience
Yes you do need a new doctor, it's obvious the symptoms your daughter is showing are not normal for a 4 year old. Get another pediatrician and have your daughter checked out. Make a point of going to your old pediatricians office for ALL your daughters medical records, make sure you let the receptionist and anyone else in earshot know ecactly why you are getting her records. Your new pediatricians job will be much easier with all of your daughters old medical records.
Had similar trouble with an uncaring pediatrician and my daughter.
