Vomit: What if My Baby Vomits when Eating?

#20: What if my baby vomits when doing baby-led weaning? Is vomiting normal when you start solid foods? It can be scary when your baby vomits, but it is not always a sign of a huge problem. In this episode I cover what you can expect as far as vomiting when your baby starts eating.

 

As your baby is learning to eat, gagging is more frequent and sometimes more involved. Some babies will vomit from gagging, and a little bit of vomit is to be expected. I also cover when you should be concerned about vomiting if it is too frequent or vomit is happening every time you feed your baby.

 

An entire episode devoted to vomiting sounds gross...and it is :) ...but more often than not a little vomit does not bother your baby. In this episode I also cover how to schedule milk and solid food feeds and how far apart they should be to help minimize risk of vomit when your baby is trying new foods.
