so sometimes after feeding and shes done burping ..we don't lay her down right away but after a while we do & when she sleep ..she seem to spit up her milk and also comes out her nose or sometimes just her nose ...shes done it more when shes laying down so to prevent that we sit her up most of the time and yesterday was the first time shes done it siting up..i don't know what it is? I'm calling her doctor on Monday..

its not that big of a deal when i puke it comes out my nose and when my son gets sick or spits up it comes out his nose, he is 11 weeks. its just the way they are, its kinda the oppoiste when you have a runny nose and it runs down the back of your throat instead of out your nose.

My son had the same problem, found out it was sever acid reflux. Doctors can give your little one some ant-acids to help her out. Does wonders, and it will go away once she starts eating sold foods.

My son does it aswell. It's because the nose is connected to the throat and the milk comes back up with a bit of force that instead of coming out of the mouth it comes out of the nose.
It doesnt happen to my son every day but the first time he did it he was sat up being burped.
