Question

My baby is now three months and three days old. He has been formula-fed since he was less than a month old. He started spitting up a bit then, which might have been due to overeating. But around two months, he would vomit like tofu brain-like substances about an hour after breastfeeding. And after I hold him upright to burp him, he would cry and fuss after a while. I’ve also noticed this is due to dyspepsia. The other babies in my family who were born had white, tiny particles as well. Taking probiotics has helped a lot. In terms of satiety, my baby’s experience is very similar to yours, which can affect appetite. This issue has been going on for about five months now, and I’ve taken traditional Chinese medicine several times, which has improved the situation. Now at six months, there won’t be much of a feeling of fullness, nor will he spit up saliva. You can start by giving him some probiotics, and then after digestion, consider traditional Chinese medicine.

Answer

A three-month-old baby often vomits after breastfeeding, which may be caused by dyspepsia. Probiotics and traditional Chinese medicine may help improve the condition.
