A member asked:

Is the novalac range to strong for my newborns stomach? he's been spitting up small amounts after feeding sometimes and then he's vomited up his formula twice in the space of a week. he acts like he's starving every 2 to 3 hours so i feed him.

Normal: Newborns commonly feed at 2-3 hour intervals. A little spitting up after feeds can be minimized by slowing the rate at which you feed him. Feed one ounce, then stop and holding him upright put him over your shoulder and burp him well. repeat this until finishesd. Keep him upright after feeding for at least 30 minutes to prevent vomiting or large spit ups. Your Dr may suggest changing formula.
