Hi
First of all ur child has gone througha lot right from the birth. First preterm birth with low birth weight then surgery and now feeding issues.. Usually infant have poorly developed tone of the valve which holds the food in stomach and prevents vomiting. As the child grows the tone starts improving starting 6months and vomiting issues resolve..
Next Steps
Since ur baby has been seen by many doctor's and various medicactions are already tried u need to see a specialist(Pediatric Gastroenterologist) for evaluation of cause.
