I have a question for the moms that breast fed. My son is a premie and his pediatric told me that my son won't be able to latch until this upcoming week to pump and fed my breast milk to him for the time being and supplement with formula if he don't get enough breast milk so I have been. Well yesterday night and today every time I feed my son my breast milk and burp him about 5 mins later he spits up so bad it cones out his nose. Could there be something in my breast milk to cause a reaction like this cause? if I feed him formula and burp him he is just fine. I feel if I give in to just formula I have failed him but I don't want him throwing up every time he eats my milk. Any advice or opinions are helpful!

I'm new to breastfeeding myself, maybe the best bet would be to contact a lactation specialist.

I would contact his doctor, my lil preemie did the same thing, she was drinking breast milk and 24cal. She had baby gerd so everytime she ate and burped the same thing would happen, plus breast milk is very rich depending on what u eat

what's baby gerd? @mrssabby so just call the office of his doctor and tell them what's going on with him?
