Hey moms. Need some help. 3 month old baby spits up a lot about a half hour to one hour after feeding formula. He’ll be sitting in bouncer or boppy and it just comes out. We’ve been using the same formula since about when he was born so not sure why this happening now. And I do burp him after feeding but if one burp comes out then I consider it one and done. Thoughts?...

100% normal. If he is gaining weight and is generally happy (especially if he can lay down without issues) then nothing to worry about. It will get worse before it gets better at around 6 months.

I usually hold my baby up for 15-20 mins after every feed whether or not he burps. Anytime I dont do this, he spits up. My baby is also formula fed

Its such a pain having to hold them for his long after every feed. Especially at night. By the time you feed them, burp them, change them, they sleep for a bit and its time for another feed. I get how tiring this can be but this is the only way that has worked for my LO. Otherwise he gets gassy and spits up

I always get 2-3 burps from mine after feeding, so maybe you could try burping a little longer? But either way, spitting up is totally normal and expected! Mine spits up totally sporadically.

Ok yes I’ll try for a little longer also. Thanks for the tip!!

For my first kid he spit up after each bottle and dr said that’s normal…. the second kid the dr said if they spit up they ate too much. Who knows, but I think you got good advice above.

The exact same thing is happening with us and our two month old. Our pediatrician recommended we hold her upright for 20-30 minutes after feeding and burping them. It suuuucks at night to have to stay up another 30 minutes holding them upright but it’s cut down her spitting up/vomiting up breast milk or formula to less than half. Strongly recommend trying it.

Agreed this is pretty normal. My son lived in one of those bandana bibs until he was close to 9 months old.

I’ve been asked to weigh in on how to improve my firms parental leave policy. It’s currently 8 weeks paid for birth parent with an extra week for each year at the firm (up to 12 weeks total) and 2 weeks paid for non-birth parent. I’m in a major city, firm is a boutique that has been around a very long time. What would you suggest? Any studies or research you’ve seen recently on trends in parental leave policies also helpful. I’d like to have some sort of data to back up what I recommend. TIA!

Parents who have or have had a baby. How was the first year or two for you? Was it awesome, was it terrible, did it change your relationship with your partner? Did you regret it, did you want out? I've heard that having a baby can really change things between you and your partner and that a lot of marriages fall apart at that point. Just interested in stories and feedback.

Also curious if one partner kind of pressured the other into having a child/was driving force in wanting the baby.
