For the vomiting, Do you mean forceful vomiting or regurgitate feeds?
If it is regurgitate it is called Reflux. To reduce reflux try and keep the baby upright for
15 - 30 minutes after feeds before putting the baby down flat.
But if forceful vomiting, kindly see a paediatrician.

Best Answer

Your baby is probably having colic, it should resolve on its own without any treatment.
It usually starts a few weeks after birth and often improves by age 3 months. By ages 4 to 5 months, the majority of babies with colic have improved.
You may however give Infacol for relief, but note that it does not work for every baby.
