Breastfeeding making DS sick.......

[Roffey82]

I don't know what's happenned in the last week but breastfeeding is making my 14week old DS so uncomfortable with wind and it's making him sick. It took me nearly 2 hours to settle him as he seems to be taking down too much air when feeding. One of my breasts is much much bigger than the other one and when he feeds I can feel the air going down. When winding him I'm always getting sick up now and this hasn't happenned before. Right now I can't see how breast is best for him as he gets upset after bringing up sick. Has anyone else experienced this?

Does his latch feel different?

Have you eaten something new?

Nope latch feels and looks the same. He is a lot bigger now am I suppose to change the way I hold him?
Diet is the same I'm on WW so generally eat the same things and cut out citrus fruits, tomatoes, mushrooms and the only caffeine I have is 2 cups of tea a day???

I think this is quite common. Ethan puked or vomited a little everytime I burped him. It's also coupled with acid reflux that happens daily. It'll get better. Ethan is now almost 5months and the regurgitation of his sick has decreased alot. Don't worry, baby is just developing physically.

Oh and he's vomited out an Oz of milk several times. His Ped said as long as it's not more than an Oz everyday, then it's okay

I would experiment with positioning to see if you can find one where he is getting less air.
