During feed time he really went crazy eating but before I could slow it down I think he may of aspirated and it's been about 10 or so mind and he's making these little whining sounds with his breathing this isn't normal and I'm really worried! I turned him upside down for a bit to help any formula come up but nothing really .... please help!

What antibiotics do you have access to, in case he did aspirate?
Typically we use Clavamox, Augmentin, Cipro or Baytril for aspiration pneumonia.
We would need a weight in grams to dose any drug if needed.
How old is your little one?
What city are you in in Florida? We have many members from there.
What sized syringe are you using?
IF this is a SOL-M syringe, they are garbage, they go WAY too FAST.
Replace them with ones you can find from Henry's or Squirrels and More.
