POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy9 months agoA. Frequent spitting up in infants, even after birth, is a common occurrence, especially during the first few months of life. This is often due to gastroesophageal reflux (GER), a condition where the milk or food in the stomach comes back up into the esophagus. In young babies, this happens because the valve between the stomach and esophagus (the lower esophageal sphincter) is still developing and may not close tightly. As a result, babies may spit up after feedings, especially if they are overfed, swallowed air during feeding, or lie down shortly after feeding. Most babies outgrow this condition as their digestive systems mature, usually by around 6 months of age.
To help minimize spitting up, ensure that your baby is burped after each feeding, feed her in an upright position, and avoid laying her down immediately after feeding. Smaller, more frequent feedings can also help, as it reduces the likelihood of the stomach becoming too full. However, if the spitting up is accompanied by signs of discomfort, poor weight gain, or other concerning symptoms, it’s a good idea to consult a pediatrician to rule out any underlying issues like reflux disease or a food intolerance.
