Our daughter is 3 weeks old today. It took me a few days to get into breast feeding after wanting to give up but we finally cracked it and she was putting on weight well. Then my milk came in and i noticed at feeds she would cough and choke where she was guzzling so much ...she then started to throw up after every feed.ALOT We find it hard to get a burp out of her so are now trying infacoil and we have been to the doctors and health visitors and they want us to take gaviscon but my instinct tells me it's not reflux but the fast let down along with all the wind in her tummy which at night causes her discomfort
I am now at my wits end and feel really exasperated and exhausted as she was getting 2-3 hours a night sleep but now she's not getting that as i will feed, try and wind her, keep her upright fir 30mins then try and put her down and she will throw up sometimes immediately, sometimes a while later which is such a worry when it's at night. She is losing weight whhvb is the real worry she pooing less so i know she isn't getting enough of the hind milk. I have tried expressing the first few minute off before putting her on, tried raising the moses basket at the front, tried different burping techniques, tried taking her off after 5 mins burping putting her back on. I'm completely exhausted from feeding her and making the milk for it only to come up again then she be hungry ang wanting food again and i'm worried about her
I would be grateful of any help
as the community team have been calling but it's all generic and i'm turning
more and more into a zombie unable to function
