Is milk coming out the nose spitting up?

Ashley Pharez · March 2009

Jonah has been doing this at most of his feedings? Is this reflux? Or just normal spitting up? It's scary and he gets all congested afterwards. Thank god for the booger sucker.

um, DS has never done that. ?i would ask the pedi about that. ?coming out the nose does not seem normal to me.

Totally normal part of spitting up.

DS does this. I asked my Pedi about it and he said it is normal. He did it a lot more when he was you LOs age now maybe twice a week. Just use the booger sucker and bring it up to your pedi at your next appointment. My ds would freak out when ever it happened and breath funny for 30 sec after but then he would be just fine.

That has happened to DD a couple times, when we first brought her home.

Caroline does it every day, but she does have reflux...

My DS has done this since he was born (he's almost 6 weeks now). It's just about every time he spits up. I said something to my pedi but they didn't seem too worried about it.

My DS has done this twice, scared the crap out of me, but he seemed ok afterwards, it was definitely part of his spitting up.

The LC told me when they are super little their nose and throat opening are really close together so it is normal for some milk to come out the nose when they spit up. It does look scary though.
