7 Week Baby bringing up Milk after every feed...is this norm Posted: 09-07-06 22:25pm
Hello,
My 7 week old baby always brings up milk
after every feed, its not straight away
but as soon as I lay her on her back (even
if I have held her up for over an hour),
its almost a clear colour and she doesnt
vomit, she kind of just pushes it out. It
doesnt seem to bother her when it happens.
What causes this and when will it stop?
Could it be related to something I am
eating?
Many thanks
Nat

According to your baby’s symptoms
(regurgitation (not vomiting) of milk
after feeding) she might be experiencing
an esophageal disorder. I will not
speculate anything without further
diagnostic examinations. You SHOULD bring
her to her pediatrician immediately.
