spitting up?

[JaJaelinn10]

I had my baby october 3rd (: FINALLY!!! Lol.
Easy labor and everything. So hes 12 days old now and lovesss to eat! He eats every three hours im pumping and bottle feeding. But, sometimes hell spit up. Is that normal or should I be concerned?  My mom said the baby can strangle hiself like that... And now imconcerned :/ Helppp!!!

Aww thanks, and no not every feeding. But, most feedings. I think hes over eatting.

Your milk might have too much yeast in it, maybe try to cut back with breads? When I breast fed my son he would spit up and be very gassy, so i changed my diet a little and that helped him so much. Baby might be swallowing too much air also, maybe try burping longer? I wish I could be more help!

Alternating between breast feeding and bottle can also be part of the reason not to mention if he's over eating that can add to it too. As for SIDS that doesn't really pertain to spitting up the baby just stops breathing, just check on the baby a few times through the night

Lol, I always have questions for the pediatrician after the appointment is over! Does your insurance have a nurse hot line? They are always super helpful and nice. =) Does baby spit up after every feeding?

Thanks and we were just at the pediatrician today ughhg. Ill call first thing in the morning. And yes im bottle feeding also.

Congrats!! =) Spitting up is normal. If baby is spitting up a whole bunch then mention it to his pediatrician. They might advise you to switch formula (if you use formula) or maybe try using a different bottle if you're pumping?

They can get what's called SIDS. Just be careful and keep a eye on him . what does he sleep in?

Spitting up it normal for the most part but yes you need to keep an eye on him it's just like your or I throwing up sometimes you can get choked
