It helps to hear that these things are normal. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244616 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 10:30:52 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 244616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: In regards to the crying when trying to burp between sides... that's totally normal! They like the sucking and don't want to stop :-) I would still try to burp in between sides, even if DD was crying, just so I could help her make more room for more milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244600 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 10:26:53 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 244600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally normal. We had this happen too. Our pediatrician said that there's a delay until they feel full, so they end up eating more than they need and then just spit up the extra. (Just like adults, that's why they tell us to eat slowly). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244563 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 10:14:48 +0000 kiddosc 244563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: E will sometimes be upset and fussy even though he is full after a feeding. I think he really just wants to comfort suck, so sometimes I'll pop in his pacifier right after he unlatches. If I let him keep eating he'll overindulge and end up spitting up. If he won't take the pacifier and is continuing to fuss, then I know he's actually still hungry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244551 Thu, 02 Aug 2012 10:09:41 +0000 mrsmenow 244551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it was the first time in a while that she was breastfed, it might have to do with the speed at which it was coming out too. She probably was use to adjusting her sucking with the bottle to slow down when she was getting full and it might take her a couple of times to do so at the breast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244210 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 20:18:59 +0000 cvbee 244210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine has done the immediate spit-up before I get him vertical to burp a few times. I think it has to do with how relaxed or not he is. When I feed him in the middle of the night, he doesn't spit up at all, and during the day when he is all excited he spits up on the burp. (I've got a major spitter-upper. He will keep spitting-up even an hour or more after a feeding if he does anything like a tummy time or if he gets excited. He's a big baby so we're not concerned, but I sometimes wonder how he gets so big while spitting up so much!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244204 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 20:12:18 +0000 Mrs. Pen 244204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: yes, but only if there was too much coming out at once or when we had thrush and it hurt him </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244176 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:54:32 +0000 mediagirl 244176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Hahaha uh... I did that too... But in my defense, she didn't seem satisfied, she was still fussing. Gah! This is why I quit! Babies are a mystery! </p> <p>@Coco Bee: so, when he unlatches, he is done and happy? Has he ever unlatched and not been finished? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244167 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:50:43 +0000 Mrs. Pen 244167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: hahaha awww! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244161 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:48:34 +0000 chopsuey 244161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: it might be air bubbles too.. ? infants are still a mystery to me!</p> <p>@Mrsbells: @Coco Bee: dang. when did your LOs start unlatching?<br /> come to think of it, my LO would unlatch, and I'd put my boob back in her mouth because I wanted her to fall asleep. HAHA. my bad. :(<br /> I overfed my EBF baby. poor thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244157 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:45:59 +0000 Mrs. Pen 244157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son spits up ten times more during breastfeeding than bottle-feeding!! I don't think it's cause he's overfed; he's about 25th percentile for weight and he's EBF. He's always unlatched when he's done </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244156 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:44:53 +0000 mediagirl 244156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: I tried to but she started crying so I took that to mean she wanted more... That's when I moved her to the other one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244153 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:43:03 +0000 autumnlove 244153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I pumped a lot the first 2 months because of issues with breastfeeding. I was always discouraged because she spit up a lot after nursing but my LC said it was normal and LO was just getting adjusted to boob flow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244150 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:41:00 +0000 Mrsbells 244150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe both breasts was too much for her? Although I have also been told you cant overfeed a breastfed baby and my baby unlatches when she is full </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244149 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:40:06 +0000 chopsuey 244149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: did you burp her between boobs? my guess is yes..! I overfed my LO like crazy because I wasn't sure she was getting enough.. I think that's why she was always in the 95-98th% for weight when she was EBF. haha. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244146 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:38:03 +0000 mediagirl 244146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: well that's why I was wondering... Did I just overfeed her? Did my boobs actually do their jobs???? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244145 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:33:01 +0000 chopsuey 244145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO used to spit up milk and sometimes it came out of her nose! Everyone used to tell me that you can't overfeed a breastfed baby, but I'm pretty sure I over fed her..<br /> I would just let her comfort nurse and she'd get a lotttta milk. haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-breastfeeding-moms#post-244143 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 19:31:30 +0000 mediagirl 244143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Back story: I stopped breastfeeding around 4 or 5 weeks because it just wasn't working. She wasn't gaining weight and I was stressed out to my wits end. I started pumping exclusively for her. That helped me calm down and see how much I was producing. </p> <p>This week, I decided to try doing one bf session a day. Today was the first day I have fed her on both sides. When she was done, she popped off and spit up a ton of liquid almost immediately. Is that normal? She sometimes spits up after a bottle but it will be a bit of time afterwards, not immediately afterwards. </p>
