Small amount of curdled milk can be regurgitated by babies normally. Try to give mother’s milk as far as possible as spit ups and vomiting are minimal with breast milk. Ensure that baby burps after feed to avoid vomiting, and no bottle use.
Next Steps
If despite correcting these points, vomiting persists then u need to consult with pediatrician.

Please try to give exclusive breastfeeding. Regurgitation immediately after feed is not to be worried about, burp the baby properly for atleast 15-20 minutes before putting her down to bed.
