Regurgitation: Regurgitation is very common in infants and babies as their stomach and esophagus anatomy is still maturing, so do not be too concerned. The fact that it is clear is reassuring as if it were dark or there was blood in it would be much more concerning. If there are signs of diarrhea or constipation or bad coughing with congestion-these are signs he/she should be seen by her pediatrician.
