Yes, it's completely normal. I think most babies do spit up a bit. My first didn't, but he was breastfed. My second one spit up a bit, but not much, both on and off breastmilk. My twins were put on soy formula, because of Duarte's glacatosemia, and spit up half of everything that went down. I told their doctor and their specialist, but was told it wasn't a problem, as long as they were gaining weight at a steady pace. I've known doctors that change formulas around until they find one that baby can tolerate better. Sometimes just changing the brand of formula helps. My twins spit up Enamil a lot more than they did Carnation. And my second tolerated Enamil better than Similac. As long as your baby is gaining weight they'll be fine, but it's worth mentioning to the doctor when you go in for 4 month shots.

If the baby has a burp in there and it doesn't come out before she begins eating again, when the burp comes out the milk on the bubble will come up too.
Try burping her often.
Also try the dr brown bottles they reduce the amount of air baby takes in and reduces spit up a lot

Its normal, but maybe you should make sure he/she burps after every feeding and you hold them more upright when feeding. Also dont tostle them around for at least 20 minutes after a feeding, that way you can avoid having him spit up after every feeding.

If it's very little and accompanied by a burp them from my experience it's normal. If it's a substantial amount and it's projectile vomiting go to the doctor because it could be acid reflux. My first born had reflux.

yes, my daughter used to spit up 1/3 of her meal after she ate every time. i asked her doctor about it and they said it was fine. This was 8 years ago...views may have changed on that by now.

Man, I wish my girls only spit up bits...I don't know how they managed to gain weight with all thier spitting, but they did...and they're perfectly healthy growing little girls, now. Not all babies spit, but it's perfectly normal if they do.
