Burping and spit up
My 3 week old baby has been spitting up milk. How much spit up is normal after feeding? She is a formula fed baby since she refused to nurse and I have low milk supply. How can I prevent overfeeding her?

Spitting up will happen with formula even without overfeeding. If baby is active, gaining weight, then no need to worry. Spitting up may settle in a few days. Meet a lactation consultant to try to restart breast feeding.
