Well just what my title says do u wind a baby whos breast fed?

Serene123 · Jun 29th, 2009, 04:27 AM

I did, and sometimes she gets wind now but it's from drinking water x

Yes you do but unlike bottle fed babies breast fed ones let you know when they have wind. As they won't always get it xxx

Mervs Mum · Jun 29th, 2009, 05:18 AM

Yes. And it's a myth that they dont get colic. I think they might get it less statistically but they do get it so be sure to wind

Blah11 · Jun 29th, 2009, 05:29 AM

Yes. They get windy from crying and sucking their fingers, or a dummy, not just feeding. Amelie was terribly windy when she was younger actually

Yep i winded charlie when he was BF not as much as a person who bottle feeds does because he didnt seem to need it that much but it was still needed sometimes, he never got colic but there was a few weeks i had too use infacol for him because he wouldnt part with it! x

I wind Olivia after every feed and usually get at least one satisfying burp come up! The expression on her face after she has done it is so funny xx

oh yes, unless you want to spend all night with a screaming baby.
robyn and ewan both had bouts of colic.

Oh yeah. If I don't get a few good burps out of him, as soon as I lay him down, he spits up. He still does anyway sometimes.
