    when does throwing up stop?

    Hi, my DD is 4 mnths and still very much a happy chucker. the throwing up dosent bother her in the slightest, but i am getting a tad sick of having to constantly change her/mine clothes!

    my DS was also a happy chucker but for the life of me i cant remember when he stopped

    would love to hear your experiences!

    For us it stopped around 6 months when he was sitting up more and all his tummy muscles got stronger. I feel for you and all the washing!

    My DS was the worst when it came to chucking. It never bothered him, but I literally couldn't pick him up without a spew cloth on my shoulder and we would both get changed at least 3 times a day and go through countless bibs and spew cloths. But then at around 5.5 months all of a sudden it got less and less, now he rarely has a spew. Don't worry too much, there is an end in sight!

    My DD was also a chucker of huge preportions, as she is a bottle feed baby we chose to include thickener in her feeds and over a few days of trial and error we worked out the best for her was double the recommended dose in order to keep her feed down and to also allow her time to play flat on her back and also have tummy time. She will sometimes still have a spew but this is like maybe once every week and a half to once a fortnight, whereas before it was before, during and after feeds.
