Breastfeeding moms..
When my son is eating, after about 2 minutes in he starts arching his back, crying, swinging his arms, and moving like something is hurting him. What could this be ? I have thought maybe it’s reflux or burps, or even food sensitivity. I stop to burp him when he does it and it works for a minute or two and then he’s doing it again. I need help please so I will know what to do for my little one to make feeding easier on both of us and bring him less discomfort while feeding.

I definitely think he has some reflux. What did you do with your son ? I wish I knew exactly what I should cut out. I don’t know what it could be.
@luv_2b_amomma, he grew out of it . He’s 9 months now and he doesn’t get the reflux as much . It was bad to the point that he was throwing up after every feeding .now it just bothers him when he burps
Mine did the same thing and it was due to overactive letdown. You can look it up and tips. You may be over producing and it's too much for him
I think that is the case. I know when he is drinking I can hear it as it goes down and he does act as if it’s a lot. What did you do with your oversupply?
@luv_2b_amomma if you don't already have a haaka or similar milk catcher, get one. I catch on the opposite breast everytime and freeze the supply for now. I also have noticed a difference in feeding her in a reclined position. I'll delatch when I feel the burn and express into a burp cloth for a moment
@luv_2b_amomma I also keep gas drops on hand for if she inhales too much air, really helps!
Yes I do have a heavy flow of milk. I think that definitely is playing a role in what’s upsetting his tummy while feeding.
He could have a diary sensitivity. Try cutting dairy out of your diet
That could be it. I normally don’t eat dairy but it was my husbands birthday Friday and I did eat cake and ice cream.
Is he latching properly? Is he spewing any milk he does get? Check his mouth for thrush also
Yes he is latched properly. Yes I do notice a bit of milk that comes up after he pulls away from the nipple and that he may even spit up. He does have thrush on his tongue. What does that mean ? What should I do ?
@luv_2b_amomma, my son had thrush and did the same thing. It def affects nursing. He needs to see a dr for medication for his thrush. If you don’t go soon you’ll get it too and it’ll be so hard to get rid of. Sanitize all of his nipples, binkys and anything going in his mouth. Boil them if you have too. As for your nipples keep them clean and dry as possible. I got it on my nipples and it felt like knives stabbing me every time I fed him.
@morganmommy79, it’s a yeast infection. It can be painful for both. If that’s what it is. I’d check with a dr if his tongue or mouth is patchy white
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
So I have a question for the already mommies. My son has been feeding great and I don't have any problems burping him but maybe a few minutes after I burp him, milk shoots out of his nose and he starts moving his arms everywhere cause he can't breathe....I'm getting worried...my question is if that's normal or if any of your babies do that too? :/
So mamas I need advice. We take our son to the gym with us and they watch him in their kid care. Well this will be the third time that we’ve gotten called in there to get him because he’s supposedly doing something we’ve never seen or heard of him doing. When I went in there, the girl was holding him, he was in tears and so happy to see me and wanted me to pick him up. I told her I wanted to see him doing what he was supposedly doing. He went on to play with a toy nicely so I told him to come to...
Okay, I cant take seeing my baby like this anymore . What saved your life helping a baby with a milk allergy and acid reflux ? He’s on nutramigen and it’s helped with his spit up not being clumpy and rotten but the spit up is still so much and 4-5 times every feeding . I’ve tried 2 medicines . Multiple formulas . He screams the second he stops feeding until he burps and it all comes out . I dont know what else to do for him 😭😭
He can be Colic. Maybe watch what U eat because certain foods aren’t good while breast feeding. My son had the same problem but he was colic and he has reflux.
