POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy9 months agoA. If your 2-month-old is spitting up continuously, it is usually a common issue called infant reflux or posseting, as their digestive system is still developing. Most babies outgrow this by 6-12 months. However, it is important to distinguish normal spitting up from something more concerning.
Normal Signs:
The baby seems happy and gains weight despite spitting up.
Spitting up occurs shortly after feeding and is not forceful.
No other signs of discomfort.
When to Worry:
Seek medical advice if you notice the following:
1. Poor weight gain or weight loss.
2. Projectile vomiting (forceful and large amounts).
3. Baby is irritable, crying excessively, or showing discomfort (could indicate acid reflux or GERD).
4. Refusing to feed or eating less than usual.
5. Green, yellow, or blood-streaked spit-up.
6. Any other unusual symptoms like fever, diarrhea, or lethargy.
Tips to Manage Spitting Up:
1. Feed your baby in an upright position.
2. Hold the baby upright for 20-30 minutes after feeding.
3. Avoid overfeeding; give smaller, more frequent feeds.
4. Ensure proper latching if breastfeeding or the right bottle nipple flow if bottle-feeding.
5. Burp your baby frequently during and after feeds.
