I had this when I was still feeding DD1 and was pregnant with DD2.. It got to the point that I really didnt want to breastfeed her because it was so bad, I would feed her to sleep, leave the room and head straight for the bathroom.
It did start to get better once my general morning sickness started to go away, but also DD1 weaned herself when I was about 5-6 months pregnant.
Fingercrossed it gets better for you soon!
And btw, when it was really bad for me, I actually had an exit plan when I was feeding in case it wouldnt wait til DD1 was finished and I could make it to the bathroom! Worse still, I actually had to use my emergency exit a fair few times!
I'm not sure about the pregnancy aspect of it, but the nervous (as in nerve-related rather than all-in-your-head) reflex that makes some lactating women vomit can be helped by eating a bit before feeding so that your blood sugar levels are less likely to spike.
hope it eases soon.
I had it for weeks, fortunately DD was down to 2 feeds as I really don't think I would have coped. Ihad other reasons but we went cold turkey on her weaning rather than cutting down. But the nausea while preg and BF never stopped for me.
Wish I could help offer some advice but I just sucked it up until I decided I just couldn't BF anymore.
Yep had it at the start of breastfeeding DS, and it came back with this pregnancy. Food and/or water helped a bit, otherwise it is breathing through it
Hope it settles for you soon
