I regards to Linda Cairns vomiting baby:

I have seen a few moms that produce so much milk so quickly that they need
to reduce stimulation to the breast even more than one breast per feed.  I
have had a couple of women that would nurse one breast for how many ever
feeds were taken in a four hour time span and then use the second breast for
the next four hour time span.  It is possible that the bottle didn't give as
much milk as the breast.

The other possibility was that thicker liquid stayed down better.  If this
was the case, reflux might be a possibility.  Some babies with reflux will
do better being held upright after feeds.  There is a wonderful exploration
of this in "Feeding & Swallowing Disorders in Infancy" by Wolf & Glass.
(BTW, if you ever get a chance to hear them speak: GO, they're great.)

If food sensitivity is the issue, look at foods with a family history of
sensitivity as well as things the mother consumes in large quantities now or
during pregnancy.

On another vein, my second son vomited all of the time until I removed milk
from my diet at a year.  He was 23 pounds (10.25 Kilos)  at 6 months.  The
only long lasting consequence was a lot of ear infection and tons of laundry.

 Let us all know how this progresses.
