Hi S.,
A little spit up is normal. A lot is not. Mendy mentioned her child had a problem digesting food. This is fairly common today and I'm afraid antacids like prevacid make it worse. Stomachs are to be acidic in order to digest food so the food can get out of the stomach and go to the next part of the digestive tract. When you remove the acid with an antacid, the food does not digest and it stays in the stomach to cause other problems like reflux and spitup and can even do damage to the stomach.
I KNOW that the Prevacid is very commonly prescribed but it actually will "train" the stomach not to produce acid and will cause other issues later on. I've studied this a lot and have actually been a victim of antacids. I now have my digestive tract working as it should but the problems were caused when I was a kid and the doctors put me on antacids.
If this makes any sense at all and you'd like more specifics, I'd be glad to help.
M.
