#asktheexpert Hello there, My baby is 6 months 20 days old but frequently she does the vomiting, once it's started then 5-10 she do ....why this is happening?

A. Frequent vomiting in a 6-month-old baby could be due to several reasons, such as gastroesophageal reflux, overfeeding, an infection (like a stomach bug), food intolerance, or something more serious like pyloric stenosis (a condition where the stomach muscles block food passage). If the vomiting occurs repeatedly in short intervals (like 5-10 times), it might indicate an underlying issue like a viral infection or even dehydration. Observe if the baby has other symptoms like fever, diarrhea, irritability, or lethargy, and ensure she stays hydrated. Consult a pediatrician promptly to evaluate the cause and provide appropriate treatment.
