A member asked:
Should i give my 2 month old rice formula or soy if he spits up a lot after every bottle?

No: You should follow up with your doctor closely to monitor growth, make sure baby is completely upright for at least 15 min after feeding, can try smaller but more frequent feeding, but baby too young for formula.

Wait a Minute!: Spitting may have several different causes. It may be norma. It may be reflus, a weakness of the esophageal muscle.It may be a formula intolerance. It could be a GI defect.Before fooling with changes, talk to your pediatrician.
