Hey, Nancy!

Well, my Bruno used to have the same exact problem – he would literally throw up every 5-10 minutes when in a car… His record is 3 times for 15 min… I tried a lot too – we got him a booster seat to go in the front, pointed the AC vents right at him (he loves them), didn’t feed (still threw up bile), fed (threw up food), and so on. This lasted until he was about 8-9 months of age, maybe 10 tops. He did eventually grow out of it, right when I bought a box of ginger snaps to give him before car rides (a recommendation someone on here gave me – they may work for your girl!). So really, I guess just try some of those things, and see how she does. If you don’t want to give gingersnaps because of the sugar, try adding some ground ginger powder to her food before car rides, or just put some on your finger and let her lick it. Or, give her a small piece of fresh ginger (if she would eat it). Other than that, I have nothing… Just patience, lots of towels and paper towels in the car, on the seats, everywhere, and lots of ventilation…

Good luck, hope she grows out of it soon!
