It’s All About the Vomit!

My 21 month old son has been throwing up after almost every meal since he was around 13 months old. Consequently, this was around the same time that I stopped breastfeeding him and started him on table foods.
To make a really long story short, our child’s doctor said it was because he was lactose intolerant or that he ate too much. So he suggested cutting out all dairy foods for a while and giving him several small meals throughout the day. Well we did that and the vomiting didn’t stop but it wasn’t as bad either. For a while, our son only vomited around once or twice per week but lately the vomiting has come back full force. He throws up around 2 times per day now and it is always directly after eating. Otherwise, he is a healthy active toddler that talks & screams constantly.
We are planning on taking him to another doctor for a second opinion since he does not overeat. He also doesn’t drink milk and rarely eats cheese so I know it’s not the lactose intolerance making him sick. I just want my baby man to be able to eat without throwing it all back up within 5 minutes.
Has anyone else experienced this with their baby?
