Thank you for your question! First of all, don't worry, keep in mind that your baby is still learning to digest on his own, and that spitting up does not necessarily indicate a problem. You also mention that he seems uncomfortable, but this usually has no impact on his health or development. Changing milk so often may not be the right strategy.. The following tips can be suggested: You can give less milk at a time, even if it means giving more often. Take breaks in the middle of feeds, sitting the baby down and rubbing his back up and down (not patting). Avoid putting the baby to bed immediately after feeding Avoid frequent changes of position immediately after feeding. I hope this has been helpful to you, and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me! Tom Samaha, pharmacist
