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.
