Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Dear XXXXXXX

The cause of vomiting could be due to

1. Introduction of new feed
2. Inadequate/Improper burping of baby
3. Teething of baby

If the following criteria are fulfilled there is no cause for concern

1. Accepting feeds well
2. Vomiting has settled down
3. No redness in anal region
4. Urine output adequate
5. No signs of dehydration

I would sggest you the following
1. Probiotic like Darolac will be helpful
2. Antiemetic like Domperidone will be helpful

I would not recommend any Homeopathy medicine for infant

Do keep me updated about progress

Best Regards
Dr Deepak
