What Does Excessive Vomiting By A Child Suggest?

Do not worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to the HCM
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns completely. Don't worry. Babies are prone to occasional episodes of vomiting. The reasons may vary from mild indigestion, transient lower oesophageal relaxations, over full tummy, etc.
If the vomiting episodes are not associated with the following, there is no need for any medication:
1. Fever, lethargy, poor appetite
2. Excessive crying spells
3. Greenish ( bile stained) or blood tinged vomitus.
The amount may be large even in some normal episodes. Also, yellow colour which you mentioned is due to gastric juices which mix with ingested milk while digestion. Since your baby is otherwise asymptomatic, I would not recommend any treatment at present.
In case, vomiting episodes recur then you may give Domperidone drops for relief.
Hopefully this will help you. I would be happy to help you in any further questions.
Take care
