Spit up

Lena122

Munchkin hasn't done the normal baby spit up in MONTHS, probably since he started solids at 6 months. But for the past week or so he's been spitting up small amounts at a time while he's playing. It's usually at least a half hour after he eats and it's not chunky like vomit. It's just the white, formula spit up. He did it several times yesterday whereas he only did it once a day for the few days before that.

Is this normal? Could he be developing reflux or something? He doesn't seem sick otherwise and isn't being more fussy or anything.

Not sure but Jackson did that for about 2 weeks in December and then it stopped. Some days it was a lot and some days it was only once or twice. I felt like during that time he was going through a growth spurt and he at a lot more than usual. So maybe he's just eating a little bit to much?

Lila was always queen of spit up, large large amounts. Eventually it stopped. Suddenly for about a week 2 or 3 weeks ago she was spitting up random small amounts and then it stopped again. Made no sense to me but I was glad it went away.

I've noticed that Eli spits up if he's SUPER active after eating. All the crawling, bouncing, rolling around can't be good on a full tummy. It comes and goes with him, but I'd say if it's something he continuously does, it wouldn't hurt to ask you ped about it.

K spits up almost every morning about 10 minutes after I feed her.  I think it is a combination of being active and eating too much in the morning.

She nurses, and I don't think she knows when to stop.

Ava has reflux but it seemed to have gone away at about 9 months but lately she has been spitting up once in a while.  I asked the ped about it a few weeks ago and she said being much more mobile and stuff sloshing around in their stomach's can cause an increase it spit up at this age.
