How many times is normal for a newborn to spit milk

1 Answer

A. It's common for newborns to spit up milk or have small amounts of reflux. Here’s a general guideline: - **Frequency**: Spitting up can happen after almost every feeding, especially in the early weeks. It’s typically more frequent in newborns, but should decrease as they grow. - **Amount**: The amount can vary from a small drool to a larger amount, but it should generally be less than what was consumed. - **Normal Spit-Up**: Spitting up a small amount after feeding is usually normal and not a cause for concern. It’s often due to the immature digestive system of the baby. **When to Consult a Pediatrician**: - If the spit-up is forceful, frequent, or accompanied by other symptoms like weight loss, poor feeding, or signs of discomfort. - If the spit-up is green, yellow, or has blood in it. If you’re concerned or if your baby seems unusually uncomfortable, it’s always a good idea to check with your pediatrician to rule out any underlying issues.
