Re: throwing up baby food, is this common?

[Guest guest]

jacob was very much like this and this was befor we knew he was reflux and all.

it was like i would feed him say three bits and 20 bites would come

up...projectial yuck...

the more cunky and thick the better it would stay down. and for jacob it also

got worst on the baby food them the milk...i did have anyone guiding me back

then so what i did was find things that were more chunck or real food like he

love apple cearel bars and caned veggies.......now i am not saying that summer

will tolarate this or even try to chew(gum) it enough to get these thing down

but it is what worked for us.

just comes up, A LOT, and do it about 3 or 4 times. It will be more

than she took in and covers her clothes, and is just way too much to

clean up with paper towels....any ideas? I havn't seen this before

with my other 3, even with my son who has extreme sensory issues and

would throw up from that as a baby, but it was different. Nothing

noticable seems to cause this with Summer.

Thanks.

Dear ,

Yes, it is common. Sometimes the heavier food will stay down,

sometimes not.

I found personally that the baby food that was preserved with citric

acid tended to come up very quickly on Connor. Unfortunately, all

baby food is preserved with citric acid. Read the labels.

I started tasting his baby food and if it was sour, I either mixed

in some Linseed oil and vanilla custard, or didn't give it to him at

all. It always aggravated his reflux. Always!

Do you give her the prevacid before eating? That will help.

Baby foods to avoid are Squash, Sweet potato, anything with

pineapple and hmmm, gosh it's been so long I can't remember.

Another trick I did was taking 1/2 tsp of powder formula and mixing

it in the baby food.

Heinz baby food is excellent for a highter calorie base per

serving. They add egg yolks to beef up the calories and protein.

Of course, one must make sure your little girl doesn't have an egg

allergy first!!!! However, the sensitivity tends to be with egg

whites first. Yolks are a bit safer.

I can't remember the stats on your little girl. If you need any

other help, just cyber holler.
