A member asked:
What is the distinction between spitting up and vomiting for a two month old? does vomiting involve heaving action but spitting up does not? thanks?

Force: In general a sit up is considered what comes up at random. A vomiting episode is longer & has force behind it. I have seen it push out debris several feet from an infant.
