My LO is coming to 8 weeks. Have tried giving gripe water for 3 times, 30mins after her feed and burp. The first 2 times, she didnt vomit her milk and accept it. The 3rd time, she vomit out 10 to 15ml of sticky white milk. Anyone know what the sticky white milk is? By vomiting out the sticky stuff, does it mean she is feeling better or worse off than before?

I think it is reflux. Babies tend to vomit out a little milk during the first three months. You can keep her upright for 30mins after her feed to make the milk go down. Any reason why you need to give gripe water? Maybe space the gripe water feed further away from the milk feed. When my gal had reflux my PD told me to hold her upright for 30mins after feeding. Yes 30mins. So it takes about that time for the milk to go down . If u feed gripe water 30mins after her feed I think it may be too close. Could it also be she is drinking too much milk?
