Is nestum causing it? or missed dose? or any other problems?she is milk protein allergic and is on isomil and thriving well.
Brief Answer:
foods other than milk should be started after 6 months of age.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to hcm.
Can understand your concerns.
complementary foods or semi solid foods are given after 6 months of age, because the gastrointestinal system mainly intestine is not mature enough to digest solid foods.
I think that you should have started the Apple puree After completion of 6 months.
The vomitings are due to injection of Apple puree.
in my opinion, you should wait for 15 more days To start Semi solid foods.
During initial one week, you should start milk based diets Like biscuit with milk, bread with milk, and after that You can start all Semi solid foods.
since, your child is already on domstal and Rantac from 2 months of age, it suggests that Your child is more prone to vomiting.
I suggest you to wait for few more days Before starting semisolid fluids.
I hope this will help you.
Wishing your child good health.
Take care.
