Novalac AR-2 infant formula - from 6 months to one year of age, 400 grams NOVALAC AR1 FOLLOW ON FORMULA Reflux - Spitting Up Are you worried that your child is spitting up in an uncomfortable way? Most babies tend to spit up after drinking milk. This is due to the return of milk from the stomach to the mouth: spitting certainly has a bad smell and is unpredictable, but it is normal!
If reflux does not cause discomfort and pain for your child, you can take some simple steps to help him spit up less:
- Gently hold your baby and help him burp frequently.
- Place your child in an upright position for at least thirty minutes after drinking the milk.
- Do not breastfeed your baby a large amount, as small, multiple meals are easier to digest. If you are giving him formula, make sure the nipple hole is not too wide.
- Don't hesitate to consult a healthcare professional if your baby spits up a lot, as untreated reflux may lead to further complications.
- Your doctor may advise you to use a special formula that reduces the reflux of milk into the mouth.
Novalac Antiemetic is a modified and intensive formula designed to prevent reflux:
- Novalac antiemetic milk contains a special type of cornstarch that thickens once it reaches your baby's stomach. Condensation of milk in the stomach helps prevent the milk from returning to the mouth.
- Novalac anti-vomiting milk is easy to drink from a bottle because it does not condense in it.
- Novalac Antiemetic Milk is a nutritionally complete milk and can therefore replace regular formula and ensure optimal growth.
