What did you do (if anything) to help prevent wardrobe changes for you and LO?
DS is 2 months old, EBF, and has been spitting up a lot since about 6 weeks. We talked with our ped about it and she said it sounds like we have a "spitter" because he's gaining weight perfectly...he just spits up a lot. We've tried leaving him upright for 10-15 minutes after nursing but he usually pukes all over me while burping. I think I have an overactive letdown, which might be part of the issue. I have a bunch of Gerber prefolds that I use as burp cloths but it's usually pretty runny and gets all over DS's face and hands and then gets on me. I have some bibs, but I probably need more. He spits up at random so wearing a bib is probably best for him, but I'm still being puked all over! Is there another burp cloth you found soaked better than the prefolds? Or covered you more?
I would like to leave the house without having to change or smelling like baby puke!
(Hopefully this is the best board...I wasn't sure where to put it!)
) we took a bunch of blankets from the hospital, and we use those as burp rags. I have overactive let down, too, but we are working on positioning while she eats. Just wanted to say you're not alone!!
Our ped said he would grow out of it at some point like you all have mentioned. We've definitely had the multi outfit change days (especially this weekend when he blew out 3 diapers and spit up on 3 different outfits!). It looks like I need to get even more burp cloths/bibs and just expect to smell like baby puke for the next couple months
