My nephew had reflux and spit up a lot, but if you're talking full on vomit, you may want to go to the doctor. Our little guy had a rotavirus last year and this was the major symptom...

Dude, I'm not even gonna think about clicking play on that. Baby puke anywhere is gross. In the mouth is even worse. I'm really gonna battle with having kids. Hopefully my wife will just have a big motherly instinct kinda deal, and I won't have to handle baby puke, or diapers. Both are awful, awful things.

A vasectomy is looking like the most awesome thing on earth.
Yeah I just had the procedure done in September and I have to go to the lab this week to see if the procedure "took." I told my wife they need a sample mixed with saliva so we'll see how that goes.
Berger, you're over thinking how gross this stuff is. After awhile, you don't even notice.
I don't doubt that when you get to child-rearing age, but at nineteen, the thought of baby...expulsions....grosses me out. I'm sure it'll be different when I have kids but right now, you couldn't pay me to deal with that business.

there's a reason I waited until I was 36 to have the first one.
Its really not that bad. My kids are awesome. I would happily go through all the puking, pooping, blood clots in their noses, vomit and every other gross thing I've been exposed to as they've gone through their childhood to have my fantastic boys in my life. Its all totally worth it.

Worrying about how much your baby is getting to eat is an ongoing challenge. I nursed my kids for two-and-a-half years straight (not per kid; it was two kids overlapping). There is actually a surprising amount of milk in there! My second baby was also a puker in the first year - his weight was lower then, but once he was used to solids his weight and height shot back up. Good luck to the three of you!
Alot of it has to do with Mom's diet. Dairy and soy can be two problematic substances (dairy being the worst.) For our kids, my wife pretty much just cut dairy out of her diet to deal with gassy, pukey issues. We're pretty sure that solved it, because the experiment of having dairy with a meal caused an entire day and a sleepless night of grumpy baby.
Pharmaceuticals are really a last resort when things get completely unmanageable as, not only are drugs tough on the system, but they're laced with shocking amounts of sugar (also tough on the system.)
I've got 4 kids.....my first one was a puker....and not just a puker, and projectile puker. I didn't know one little baby could go through the that many changes of clothes in one day. I can not count how many times i've been puked on. word of advice is...if your baby has just been fed don't tip it upside down and over your head to play with it......bad idea!
Also, get all the burps out...I think we could have been better at that and saved a few mishaps.
