6m old baby being sick and trots with any solids

I have just posted this thread in the weaning section but someone suggested it might be a food intolerance - perhaps gluten.

I have tried him on creamed porridge, baby rice, pureed carrots etc etc but he just sicks up everything and anything that does stay down results in a runny bum!

Any advice - midwife sad it is not lactose intolerance cause he drinks formula milk no problem (whey based)

bumping for you

Hope you get some advise

OK why not take him back to basics- pure formula feeds for 3 days/ a week so you know he's getting enough fluids, then SLOWLY introduce one thing at a time so he has just that for a day or two (might seem boring but it works!) gradually build up.

Could just be his little digestive system isn't quite ready for solids (despite the text books!!)

Thanks, I tried him a month ago and figured he was not ready so I waited a couple of weeks and tried again - smae thing happened. Tried him recently and same again. I am not Overly concerned cause he is a good weight still (although he has dropped a bit recently) Just thought I would get some advice that it is nothing more sinister than his tummy not being ready yet.
His sister was chewing on roast dinners by this age!!!
