Need full evaluation: Normal, healthy babies do not "deliberately" try to vomit. A baby who is not eating solid food by 8 months must be fully evaluated by a pediatrician. He can refer the baby to a pediatric gastro-enterologist (specialist) if needed. Doctors will look for malformations in the gut between the mouth and the intestine, examine for neurological problems, and review the feeding techniques used by parents.

OT: If this is strictly a behavioral issue, there are occupational therapists who specialize in helping toddlers with these issues.Consult your pediatrician.
