Spitting out food is normal as baby is not used to the taste. Baby should pass poop every 4 days at least. Better to give glycerine child suppository (anal tablet). Eg hallens child suppository. Use as needed

Hi, Spitting is normal when you introduce new food. So continue complementary feeding and water. Passing stools once in 6-8 days is normal.
