Teething?: Vomiting is not a sign of teething. It usually indicates a systemic infection. Have your child examined by your pediatrician.

Virus?: That sounds more like a virus to me....Restlessness, irritability would be more likely signs, grabbing at their mouth, etc. I would give your pediatrician a call!

Generally: No. Sounds viral. Keep the child hydrated and see your pediatrician asap.

No: Teething does not cause vomiting or sleepiness. Sounds like a virus. Keep well hydrated and have them evaluated by their pediatrician asap.
