Crying and throwing up.....advice please!!

in Toddlers: 24 Months+
DD has been waking in the middle of the night since she was born, usually twice. I go in and rock her and she usually passes back out again and goes back to sleep. If I don't go in, she cries so hard she throws up, so I am kind of resigned to going in twice a night and never STTN myself. Now, at bedtime, when I leave, she's crying so hard she throws up. And I mean, full blown vomit, which requires sheet change, a bath, and scrubbing of the carpet. I know she's doing it in some ways to control the situation, but I cannot leave her in her vomit as a way to teach her a lesson, ( this is what a pedi in my practice suggested when i called today- mine is away) so I am at a loss as to what to do. Has anyone ever experienced this, and if so, what did you do? Advice, please.....thanks!!

    I used to nanny for a boy who used to do this.  He eventually grew out of it.  Don't have any advice, but to say it will get better!

    I would obviously not leave my child laying in her own vomit, that is ridiculous.  However, I would change the sheets, scrub the carpet, wash her off, etc. with NO eye contact and NO talking.  I would do it silently with as little interaction

    I don't have any advice except to be patient and she should outgrow it. That's really rough though. And I am really surprised a pedi would suggest leaving a child in their own vomit, even for a little to teach them a lesson. That's pretty gross.

    unless you break her of wanting you to tend to her throughout the night, you will never STTN again.

    My DS used to do all of this too. When DH took over night time duties, he started bringing DS to bed with us instead of rocking him as I had been. DS would be rocked to sleep or laid with when he went to sleep. He would sleep in his own bed until about
