DD is 14 wks now and is ebf and I've noticed that she is intermittently spitting up! She has done so alot today and I'm wondering if it's something I've eaten or is it reflux??

My question is how long after I've eaten something does it go into my milk and how long does it last for?? E.g if I ate peanuts yesterday would it affect her today or would she of had a reaction yesterday??

I've had issues with oversupply and fast let down in the past!! Still have a fast let down which I'm sure gives her wind!! I'm so confused and don't know what to do or where to start from!!

She use to have very offensive green spinachy poos but I'm convinced that was due to too much foremilk because of oversupply! This has stopped now and we get the occassional yellow/green nappy but mainly orange! She did however have a very smelling vinegary nappy which was illuminous green this evening! I have to add that they are very runny and I notice mucus sometimes too! Shepasses wind quite alot too!! She winges at time but never seems to be in pain! She had dry skin but I'm using doublebase gel which really helps!

Would really appreciate some advice

TIA

Sounds either like your oversupply issue or the start of teething have a read hear www.kellymom.com/babyconcerns/reflux.html#increased

Thanks migril! Great info! I thought of giving up dairy but surely DD would have shown reactions from birth??

DD has been putting her hands in her mouth a lot lately which creates a lot of saliva! Could this be a sign of teething or developmental?

I think hands in mouth is developmental (lots of nerve endings in hands and mouth!) but you could try her with a teether to see if that helps.

If she is possetting a lot (aka spitting up) you can see if keeping her upright post feed in a bouncy chair/sling/etc to see if that helps.
