Not feeding well

Baby is one week to 5 months old now. Recently he refuse to drink milk and make a lot of “ehh” sounds throughout the day. He also has a lot of spit up (legit will be all over the floor) after feeds if he drinks. He sleep well and is pooping/peeing normally. Any advices from the mamas here? Should we bring him to see a pd?

hi Mummy. my LO also have the same problem as u when she was much younger. my Lo currently 16 months. what i do when she refuse milk, i give her water in exchange as LO need fluid in her body this is to ensure that LO is not dehyrated. next i change the milk bottle to straw milk bottle and i realise she still refuse the milk. so i tries few milk brand such as Enfa, similac, Nan, Dumex and lastly Dugro stage 2 her age. Guess what, she likes the Dugro taste but stage 4. Stage 2 Dugro she dislike the taste so we let her have the stage 4 till now she drink. important she drink milk n water. is your LO suddenly have fever, kindly bring to doc to do urine test to ensure it is not URTi coz she did not milk. my LO was diagnosis with URTI when she refuse her milk and coz of that she dehyrate and coz a mini stones on her kidney.
