BFing and spit up
my DC has started spitting up so much over the past week (4 weeks old). He used to spit up a little but now he spits up a lot for about 1-1/2 hours after nursing. Did anyone elses DC do this? Do you think he is being bothered by something I've been eating? I've been eating through lots of leftovers so I've been eating pretty much the same kinds of foods every day. He still has plenty of wet diapers and BMs every day so I'm not concerned about him not getting enough but I never want to put him down after he eats because he spits up so much and all over the place. any advice?

Re: BFing and spit up
my DD started spitting up also shes 5wks old. But not at every feeding.. I think its gas, Try burping your DC more, try and get more than one burp out. I find when i do, then it doesnt happen. I also found if i get her excitted or bounce her right after feeding, it happens.

Same here...my DS spits up a lot now too...but not every feeding...
I read on kellysmom someone posted on the boards that they noticed this happens a day after she eats a lot chocolate, but I'm not sure if thats true!!!

Re: BFing and spit up
i agree with the ap, maybe try burping more often? jonah ends to be gassy from both ends, so i started burping him several times during the feeding and i noticed an improvement.
