I would need more information to answer your question 1. Is this a problem that has appeared recently? 2. Has the child undergone any surgeries? 3. 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?
