An increase in spit up? (amount & frequency)

lovemymaddy

My DD is almost 8 weeks and I feel like she's been spitting up more lately. At lease 2-3 times a day, sometimes a lot! A few weeks ago I feel like it was rare for her to spit up after eating...

Anything to be worried about do u think?

Liam spits up after or during every bottle, sometimes a lot.  As long as he is gaining weight and he doesn't seem in pain and there isn't red or brown in it I was told it was ok.

I wouldn't worry. DS has been doing that too. Some days (like yesterday) he will spit up after almost every meal. Other days he won't spit up at all.

Are you bf'ing or ff'ing? 

If bf'ing, it could be something you are eating. 

If ff'ing, you may want to try a soy formula.

I'm breastfeeding and my baby spits up a lot! He's not fussy or colicky so my doctor said he is probably swallowing too much air so I should burp him more frequently and he could be getting too much milk too quickly ( I have lots of milk and a very fast let-down) She also said to try to keep him in more of an upright position for a little while after a feeding. Good luck!
