Most often spitting up doesn't affect a baby's growth. Does your baby seem well? Is your baby eating and gaining weight? Then there's little cause for worry.
Keep in mind that when you see how much your baby has spit up based on the size of a spit-up stain, it's easy to think there's more than there is. Babies most often spit up only one or two mouthfuls of breast milk or formula.
