Can you all help, am BF my 5wk DS all going swimmingly except for the vom fest.

He is gaining weight and thriving so that bit doesnt concern me.

Just curious really I offer both boobs at every feed but after the first boob he throws up alot should i still offer the 2nd or is he vomiting because he is full so therefore dont offer 2nd boob?

offer both boobs, baby will take what baby wants. even if you feel ds voms because he overeats restricting his feeds is not the way forward.

just make sure you burp in between etc, have seen your pics, you've been a mum for longer than me, so won't teach grandma to suck eggs.

DD is 4 weeks old, seems to be shaping up to be a puker like her brother before her. Sometimes v impressive soak us both type pukes. Sometimes she's still squawking so she gets both, other times she seems happy with one.

I sympathise tho, DS was like this for first 6 months

Thanks all, DS1 was never like this going through an average of 8 sleepsuits a day and I have stopped changing my t-shirts I just let them dry bleugh. Will soldier on doing both boobs and just put up with the vom.
