Milk coming out if baby's nose in drops

2024-01-18 02:50:27
I was feeding my 12 week baby in a lying down position. I rarely feed him this way but everytime I do I always notice the bed area under his mouth getting wet. I thought it might be through the mouth. Today I saw milk coming out in drops through his nose during sucking. Im noticing this for first time. Any idea why this is happening?
