Infant reflux: This is actually a very common condition, but rarely is it really a problem. Infants are prone to spitting up like this - they eat a liquid diet, are laying down a lot, and have underdeveloped valves that help keep the stomach contents from coming back up again. All of these things improve with time. The more important question is whether he is growing and gaining weight. If he is, don't worry!
