Baby oozing milk out of mouth?

Question

Ok this is wierd. My 10 week old sometimes has too much to eat (I guess) and when I lay him down, he lets alot of the milk come out. He doesn't burp or spit up or even move a muscle.. its as if it was sitting in his mouth and just comes flowing out. Except it wasnt in his mouth b/c I checked. Isn't that wierd? Anyone else have this happen.

Answer 1

I have the same problem with my 2 month old, only it will come out of her mouth and nose. She's difficult to burp so I have to sit her upright for a while after she eats. It's a bit of a reflux problem. They will grow out of it. If not, consult your doctor.

Answer 2

By laying him down the excess that still hasn't gone all the way down comes back up.  It's still considered spitting up.  Trying holding him upright for a few minutes after he's done and burping him.  My baby is 5 1/2 months old and even after I hold her up and burp her, soon as I put her down she'll let some milk out still.  I hate it cuz it gets to her hair and and gets sticky, UGH!  It's not a big deal tho.  Some kids just spit up a little more than others.  

Answer 3

sounds like he over ate and its getting pushed back out. that flap in his stomach might not be closing all the way and it is getting pushed out.

Answer 4

my baby is 1 wk 2day n just kinda startd doin that

Answer 5

that's what spit up can be like sometimes.  

Answer 6

Spitting up can happen in several ways, not just the spectacular projectile version!

Keep him upright for awhile after he has finished drinking so that the milk can digest a bit and he has plenty of time to burp. I know I don't like to lie down straight after a big drink and I guess your son is the same.
