Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
One problem I think of is GERD. A reflux disorder where the food passes back into the esophagus from the stomach.
Another problems that comes to my mind is feeding problem. Any baby who is force fed against her dislikes is likely to develop such problems.
How long is your baby having such problems?
Does she vomit daily?
Do you force feed your baby?
Much more interaction is required to answer your question better....
You may contact me with further details on the following URL...........

Hi,
Thank you for your qery,
Recurrent vomitings are may be due to gastroesophageal reflux.
And significant reflux may lead to decreased weight gain.
But another thing is dont feed forcibly to her as this will lead to vomitings.
Other causes of vomitings to be ruled out by physical examination and investigations.
So I advise you t meet a good Pediatrician near by your for charting her growth chart and to evaluate.
Hope I have answered your query.
