Baby is 7 weeks old and exclusively breastfed. Lying asleep on me now and i've just noticed she has quite stinky breath - is this normal?!

Is it a sicky stale milk stink? If so, normal. If not ask gp to check.

If its acidy it could be reflux. Agree to go get if checked out

I've always found DS gets smelly breath when he's coming down with something Hmm

sniffs I guess it is sour, I'm not great at identifying smells! We did suspect she has reflux. We'll bring it up at 8 week check up next week!
