Breast milk has curd-like substance, what is its impact on children?

Patient's question:

Why does a baby have so much white milk residue on their tongue when exclusively breastfed? I haven't learned about this before and would like to understand it.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm happy to answer your question: The baby might be due to food residue left in the mouth after spitting up. It's okay, the baby is still small, and the digestive system hasn't fully developed yet, so spitting up can occur. Also, babies tend to strain, and straining can worsen spitting up. For specific situations, it's recommended to consult a professional. I hope my reply is helpful to you.
