If it's lasting longer than that, then you should offer more bland, starchy foods and avoid fried, fatty foods or too many dairy products. You should also avoid sugary drinks such as sodas or juice. It's almost always fine to offer plenty of foods like rice, bananas, applesauce, toast, chicken, etc.
