Worrying vomit and strike - need help

[murphy36]

My 3.5 month old had his first ever violent projectile vomit last night after DP middle of the night bottle feed. DS not upset and fell asleep after, but today he has refused to BF.

He took a bottle 210ml at lunch, but otherwise has had 1 or 2 sucks. He isn't upset off the boob, and been a bit sleepy but a little worried!

Any ideas?

Are you using formula?

When ds went on nursing strike (his ear drum had burst earlier) I found if I got him nearly asleep in my arms, then I could latch him on and he'd take an almost full feed then. It took 2-3 days before he happily fed awake.

All mine did a one off projectile vomit, with no apparent reason.

Formula and/or EBM

He's started feeding off the left now, but not the right

When ds went back on he was much better on one side than the other. I can only assume it was the bad side when it had actually popped.

If you can get an appointment, it might be worth just getting him checked out by the GP. He might have a sore throat, or ear ache, which would effect his enjoyment of feeding.
If you can't get an appointment, then don't worry though.
