[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could be gas, could be overtired, could be reflux..  any chance you have a fast let down? When I have over supply my baby has those symptoms ( 10 weeks old but your description could describe our night tonight)[/quote]

OP’s wife here — yes, I’m pretty sure I have a very strong let down (milk literally pours from them by just bending over) — any recs?[/quote]

DP but this doesn’t sound like a fast letdown issue. That said, get a *good* lactation consultant quickly if you want to continue breastfeeding. Some of the advice here is why - people love to blame breastfeeding for baby behavior because the truth is some babies just have colic and it’s easier to just tell mom to do SOMETHING even if it’s not science based at all. A LC will help you figure out what you should and shouldn’t try before you kill yourself on diet changes, pumping the letdown, etc.

Bottom line, don’t do anything differently unless/until you start working with an expert 1-1. [/quote]
