Subject: vomitting

This  is a question about my 8 month old:  for the past week, she's  been
vomitting once a day after nursing.  .......
This began  when she got her first cold and low-grade
fever.
 
Jessica asked about vomiting after a breastfeed and what struck me was the  
fact that this didn't start occurring until her baby had a cold.  Might  this 
be due to an accumulation of mucus that she's swallowing periodically post  
nasally?  It may then be irritating to her stomach and the addition of milk  at 
that point just makes it all come up?  I remember my own girls doing  this with 
colds.
