When Little Bug was around 6-7 months old I introduced the Gerber puffs to her. She was really interested in those and it was so cute to see her figure out how to get them from her table to her mouth.

It wasn’t long and Little Bug started gagging on the puffs just about every time she would eat them. When I say gagging I mean to the point of throwing up most every time she tried to eat them.

I just decided maybe she wasn’t ready for them and decided to not give them to her for a month or so and then try again later.

Well, a month later she was still gagging and throwing up when she would eat them.

This has continued with most any table food that she has to gum first before swallowing.

Just today my mom was eating a banana so we decided to mash some up for Little Bug. I gave her two bites and then on the third she started gagging. Two seconds later she threw up everywhere.

About a month ago I was putting Little Bug down for a nap. Before naps I usually give her the Hylands teething tablets. I was giving her the tablets when she got choked up. Seconds later, she threw up everywhere.

When I say “threw up everywhere” I am talking formula geyser, not just some spit up.

I am beginning to worry that something is wrong.

Why does she puke nearly every time she eats anything other than the baby food from the jar?

Does she just have a very sensitive gag reflex?

Is this some crazy form of reflux?

If anyone has any information to give concerning this, please do so.

I have put in a call to her pediatrician about this as well.
