Has the child been diagnosed/treated for GER? 4. Does the child vomit after every feeding or only after eating/drinking certain foods? 5. Does the child have diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, etc 6. Is she gaining weight adequately? I will give my best suggestion. You should also contact your PCP. READ MORE
