A ten-month-old baby only eats milk and does not take complementary foods. Sometimes they vomit and feel nauseous. How?

Patient's question:

A ten-month-old baby only eats milk and does not take complementary foods. Sometimes they vomit milk and feel nauseous. What is the matter?
Past treatment history and effectiveness: None.
What kind of help is desired: How to feed complementary foods. Is it a digestive problem?

Doctor's answer:

Sometimes a child spitting up milk is normal. At this age, the stomach is horizontal, making it easy to spit up.
1. At this age, you should have already started introducing solid foods. The older the child gets, the harder it becomes to feed them.
2. Solid foods range from fine to coarse textures. Start with rice powder, rice porridge, vegetables, and fruits, then gradually introduce eggs, meat, etc. Usually, add one new food every few days, transitioning from purees to small pieces. Additionally, introducing solid foods now is also beneficial for teething.
3. If the child occasionally feels nauseous or spits up, avoid any movement or lying down immediately after eating. Patting their back can help.
