Baby is 4 years old, so that is a long time to go without having them cleaned out!
My groomer told me not all yorkies have to have them expressed at all. I have read the more you do it the more you have to continue to do it. As for the vomiting my vet told me it was from an empty stomach the acid builds up causing foamy vomit.
As soon as the kids get up I feed them cooked baby carrots or scrambled eggs with cheese & a couple of pieces of apples. They haven't vomited at all since they get something in their bellies 1st thing. Hope changing your brand of food helps.
