Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello. Thank you for your question. this is a common occurrence in children of this age. the fact that she didn't lose consciousness at the time of the fall is a very encouraging sign. However, vomiting is sometimes an indication of something else possibly going on. I recommend you consult with your doctor now so the proper evaluation can be done and anything more serious ruled out.
