Milk coming out baby's nose while bf

I'm EBFing my 3 1/2 month old ds, and the last couple weeks I've noticed milk drips out his nose during most feedings.  Is this normal?  It doesn't seem to bother him other than making it a little more difficult to breathe while eating.  Is this just a phase, or will I have to keep cleaning up globs of milk and mucus after every meal?

you can try tilting baby a little so that the feet are a bit lower than the head.

Normal.  My ds did that too until he was 6months?  It didn't bother him, so I didn't worry about it.
