Spitting up after BF, but not with formula???

DS will spit up after BF or taking a BF bottle, but not with supplemented formula. It doesn't bother him and he doesn't cry, but I think it's wierd. Could it be something I'm eating?

  • It's my understanding that formula is "heavier" and less likely to come back up, but that's just based on what I've read while researching reflux. If it doesn't bother him, I wouldn't worry about it.

  • When this happened with me, I think my LC told me to eliminate dairy for a few weeks. If my memory serves me correctly, this worked for us. Or, is it possible you have a fast let down reflex?
