Is it true 4 month olds start to spit up a lot again? my baby seems to be spitting up more. she isnt in any type of discomfort. should i be worried?

Basics: The peaking frequency of spit ups around 4 mo has more to do with their mobility/muscle tone than anything. Newborns have flabby belly muscles that firm as they get older. Once they begin sitting up gravity helps them keep the food down better.
