Will has thrown up projectile style three times this morning after eating and still wants to keep eating, should I just continue to feed him? Hes only been napping all morning since 8am too.  ------------- TTC #2 |

If he wants to feed, I'd continue feeding him.. Nova's had a couple of days that in the beginning and I just kept feeding her. If it continues or starts to really worry you, give your MW or GP a call 
Oh, and Novella only ever naps during the day drives me a little batty some days!

If he wants to feed, definitely keep feeding him. Maybe give him some gripe water or something as he may be having trouble with wind.
If he keeps it up though I would give your M/W a call for sure. -------------

Maddi used to do this when she was overfed but then once it all came out we had to start again becasue her tummy was empty.
I would just keep feeding him but try and maybe not feed him too much.. Also if Maddi ever had a phlegmy cold occasionally that would cause her to bring it all back up too. -------------

| Ruby used to do this all the time when she was a newborn, she had real trouble bringing up wind, My mw recommended Infacol drops a they seemed to do the trick, check with your mw or gp first though. We only used it for about two weeks and she got better at bringing up wind |

I was thinking wind too! He might have an air bubble that the milk is sitting on top of! Very stressful for mummy. -------------

My son did this until he was 10 weeks old, anywhere from twice daily to once or twice a week. The amount tapered off and then he stopped, so I assume his 'pipes' matured.
It was stressful having to feed him again, but somehow I produced enough milk. My midwife was fab while I still had her and she ruled out reflux (we tried gaviscon) but gave me feeding techniques etc to treat him as a bit reflux-y. I hope it was a one-off for your bubs. -------------
