More Puke!

Yes, some more puke came out of my baby's mouth. I swear, I thought he was hungry. I guess he just had a gas bubble in this tummy again. His temp seems to be okay. So, I don't think he is sick. I hate to think I am over-feeding my baby. But he was making suck-suck face. I thought that meant he was hungry. He took the boob like he was starving. And again, so much milk came out of him.

Lee was giving him a bit of milk from a bottle I pumped this morning/ Then, without warning, BLAH! All the milk came up and over Brandon's sleeper and Lee's pants. It went right through to his boxers. Both boys are now a bit cleaner. Lee is in jammies and Brandon in a new outfit. They are now spending some time apart. Lee is reading on the sofa and Brandon is in the bassinet hiccuping.

I have come to the conclusion that babies puke weird. They just look like a stage prop. There is no warning. Just BLAH! He was quite calm about it afterwards too. Puking can't be fun though. For any age.

J used to throw up all the time, and he was still really hungry. Babies have an immature digestive system, and it takes awhile for them to get used to it. Spit-ups are a normal baby thing.

Is he spitting up or actually throwing up? There is a difference. If there is no stomach turning type of action going on there, it's a spit-up. He probably just has an air bubble or something. But if his stomach retches while it's happening, that's throwing up, and it's a different beast entirely. Watch for that; it might mean that he has some kind of stomach bug.

But from what you've described, it's all sounded like big spit-ups. I think he's probably fine. Keep feeding him; he'll hold it down when he's ready.
