In general, babies spit up a lot of milk, which may happen soon after feeding, or half Happened in hours. Spitting up is a common phenomenon in infants and may be caused by the following reasons:
1. Disease factors: Spitting up may be a symptom of systemic or gastrointestinal diseases. If your baby loses a lot of weight from spitting, or coughs while spitting, or if the vomit is brown or green, or spit out 70-80 cm away, these may be signs of illness. Most babies are happy vomitters. If the baby spit up milk is very uncomfortable, it is very likely that the esophagus is inflamed, and parents need to take the baby to the hospital for treatment in time.
2. Physiological factors: The anatomical and physiological characteristics of the head of the gastrointestinal tract of infants are prone to spitting up milk: this is because the cardia between the esophagus and the stomach is immature, and some mucosa needs to be excreted from the body. .It is very common to spit up milk for physiological reasons.

3. Other reasons: The baby may also be prone to spitting up because of overeating and lying on his back immediately after feeding. These are all physiological complaints, and parents don't need to be too nervous. Also, be careful not to overfeed your baby at one time.

In general, if your baby spits up occasionally and is in good spirits, it doesn't necessarily mean that he sick. However, if the baby vomits several times in a row and vomits every feeding, parents should pay attention to whether the baby has a fever, how the stool is, and whether there is any change in the spirit. Because this indicates that the baby may have gastrointestinal problems, or other systemic diseases in the body, you need to take the baby to the hospital to find out the cause.
Through the above introduction, I believe that everyone has a certain understanding of the reasons for the baby to spit up milk. If you are still unclear about this, you can consult your doctor in detail.
