The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Baby white spit-up is usually breast milk or formula that has curdled — when it meets stomach acid, milk curdles and looks white, like cottage cheese. This is often normal and part of digestion.

However, contact your pediatrician if:

  • White spit-up is forceful and happens after every feeding
  • Baby isn't gaining weight or is losing weight
  • Spit-up is accompanied by fever, fussiness, or green/yellow vomit

If white, curdled-milk spit-up happens occasionally and baby seems happy, feeding well, and having regular diapers, there's no need to worry. Still, if you have questions, checking with your pediatrician is the safest choice.
