It does make things a challenge. The new formula has made things 1000% better but it's enriched with rice starch and very very thick. When it did come back up I was right there holding him. It had been at least an hour since he'd eaten. It was SO thick. It frightened me. What if I hadn't been there? Would he have aspirated since now you're supposed to lay babies on their back to sleep?
She's feeling guilty because would this have happened if she'd been able to continue to breast feed? (I tell you I wish she'd stay off the internet!) I try to remind her that this happened long before she transitioned to formula because I was trying to figure out a way to tell her that she had to keep a food diary because something she was eating wasn't agreeing with the baby.
