Major spit up

My 10 week old just started this thing where normally 1 bottle a day normally the 5-6am bottle he spits it up all over the place... It's so bad I have to suck his nose afterwards. He is EFF.. Anyone else had this problem that had some advice?

Re: Major spit up

  • Maybe he is drinking too fast because it is his first bottle after going a long stretch without eating? Have you tried paced feeding, a slower nipple, or stopping to burp in the middle?

  • My lo has been doing something similar but in the afternoon. At least 3tbsp worth. He's teething though (confirmed by ped) so he's swallowing a ton of saliva. What does the spit up look like? Clear with clumpy bits? Milk? If you're concerned, I'd def bring it up with your doc.
  • My LO is BF but she has started spiting up a lot lately. Even hours after her last feed.
  • Ugh, I feel your pain. Spit up is so stressful! I hate it! I agree with PP, maybe try a slower nipple?
