DS2 is 5 months old so I feel a bit daft asking this, but he's been puking what seems like almost constantly for several weeks now.
Type of puke varies - sometimes a mouthful or so of fresh milk during or right after a feed, sometimes lots of saliva with some milk in (think he's about to start teething), sometimes half-curdled ages after a feed. But it just keeps on coming.
Quite apart from being sick to bloody death of both of us being constantly soaked, stained and smelling of yoghurt, he was premature and IUGR (only got to ten pounds at 4.5 months) and I am frantic at the amount of feed he's losing and what it must be doing to his weight gain.
It has got to the point that every time he's sick I want to either scream or cry, which is absurd but his weight gain's pretty erratic anyway and I've been through huge ups and downs because of it.
The vomiting does not bother him at all, he's a very cheerful and placid baby.
Any advice very much appreciated.

Cheerful but constantly vomiting EBF baby - could this be reflux?
