About this episode

#457: 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.


Listen to this episode to learn:

  1. Why a little bit of vomit is to be expected when your baby starts solid foods
  2. How long to wait for solid food feeds after a bottle to help reduce the risk of vomiting
  3. When to seek expert help if your baby is vomiting at mealtimes more often than you would expect
