    whats the consistancy? Its probably just spit-up. Sometimes Riley has projectile spit-ups that seems like throw up (meaning its alot). Whats the color? If its clear or white then she may just need to be burped more. Riley needs to usually have two big burps to not give a little spit-up. I start her over my shoulder then after she burps like that I sit her up with her face cupped in my hand and gently rub her back then rock her back and forward slowly until another gas bubble comes up. Shes getting a lot of immunities from breastfeeding to build up her defense against germs so shes prob not sick but you never know. Also as far as I'm aware nothing you eat will make her throw up. Hope I helped. :)

    You'll know the difference between vomit and spit up when she ever does vomit. There will be violent wretching just like when you do it. My kids would always make this awful croaking sound like there is a lot of air (burp form) mixed in.

    yea she did make that weird sound. I could tell she was going to throw up because of the way it sounded. she squirmed around for a bit and acted irritated and then threw up and looked like she felt much better and fell asleep...

    Both my kids were pukers. I nursed both and they would throw up whole feedings. The first one would do it usually right after he ate, but the second one would do it anytime. Ususally after you got him all dressed and in his car seat :rolleyes:

    We're talking about having a third one and you just reminded me that I'd be in for more of the same haha It's funny the things you forget. My boys are 6 and 9....
