Spit up

Anyone else’s baby spitting up after every feed - and a little while after? Am trying to keep her upright post feed but wondered if anything I could be doing to prevent in the first place? She is EBF

Mine tends to spit up straight after as she falls asleep on the boob with a mouth full, so I can’t avoid that. Maybe wind during the feed and between boobs if you offer both? And just to make sure you wind her properly after? Trying different positions. I find if I lift her up and bounce her in an almost frog position this gets burps up too. Is it spit up or vomit? X

It’s defo spit up not vomit, it seemingly falls out of her mouth and she doesn’t react particularly. Will try the frog bounce as that’s not something I’ve done!

Yes mine is also EBF and does this after every feed. Usually quiet a lot of spit up even if burped and held upright

I’m also having this with my little man. When I spoke to my breastfeeding support through NCT, she said it’s not a concern if he’s not bothered by it, still producing enough nappies and will happily feed again. She suggested feeding sooner so that he is taking less and also sent this link which was an interesting read - https://www.carolsmyth.co.uk/breastfeeding-resources/posts/2015/may/reflux-and-breastfeeding/

That’s so helpful and interesting @Hannah thank you!
