So many moms in my mew mom's group c/o baby spitting up or being "worked up" for reflux. In addition to the recomendations cited in your post, a suggestion could be made to increase hindmilk intake for the breastfed baby. This may include decreasing foremilk intake, ie: pump off a little foremilk pre fdg, then increase fdg duration on the first breast, with massage towards the end of the fdg on that first breast to more fully empty ducts of hindmilk. This can decrease difficulties with an overabundance of foremilk, and have a similar effect as the recomendation to provide thickened fgds, as hindmilk is thicker than foremilk. Makes sense to me anyway and fairly consistently improves the situation. Does anyone know of anything in the literature documenting the effect of hindmilk on reflux specifically ?
