My baby has been breastfed since birth (he will soon be 4 months old) and the more he spits up, the more he spits up. Should I consult?

After each drink...Should I go to her doctor because it really bothers me or should I be careful with certain foods?

Good evening ma'am,
It can be normal for children to regurgitate a little after feedings. Just make sure the child's weight is still growing. In any case, spit-up is rarely a reason for an emergency visit. Therefore, it will be discussed with the doctor at the next appointment.
In the meantime, all possible techniques should be applied to avoid excessive spit-up, such as interrupting feedings frequently to burp, and avoiding putting the child to bed for 15 minutes after feeding.
Tell us about your child's condition,
Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
