Spitting and vomiting milk

Question

Hi mummies, my baby is turning 3m old soon. He seems to have reflux and tends to spit out milk or even vomits esp when he drinks too fast without pausing. He’s on total breastfeeding (latch). Sometimes he coughs (quite frequent) or chokes on milk. He seems to have the symptoms of reflux but is gaining weight well. Should I bring him to the PD or spitting and vomiting in babies is normal?

Reflux or Milk spits common on newborn till few months old. Babys oesophagus yet to be fully developed, hence milk content will flow up back causing milk spits or reflux. It is also important to burp in up right position after feeding. This is to ensure babys dont feel bloated/gassy after feeding. Be it BM/FM intake do ensure baby burp before putting them to bed (take time and do not rush to burp them neither putting them to bed)
