Patient's question:
My baby is three and a half months old. After feeding, he started spitting up milk, but after more than an hour, he spat out water. Is that normal?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in this case, it might be because the baby is relatively small and tends to vomit after eating and moving. If the baby vomits water after drinking milk for over an hour, it indicates that the baby is uncomfortable or experiencing indigestion. After milk stays in the stomach for over an hour, it mixes with gastric juice and becomes watery, which might be the reason for the vomiting. You can give the baby digestive aid medication to regulate intestinal function, appropriately extend feeding time, and drink water between two feedings.
