POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy10 months agoA. While occasional acidity or indigestion in a breastfeeding mother generally doesn’t directly affect the baby, there can be indirect connections. If you consumed spicy or rich foods that triggered your acidity, it's possible that some components of those foods could be passed into your breast milk. This can occasionally lead to a temporary upset in the baby's stomach, causing symptoms like spitting up.
Additionally, if you're experiencing discomfort or pain due to acidity, it might lead to stress, which can affect your breastfeeding experience. Stress can sometimes cause babies to be more fussy or irritable, leading to spitting up if they're feeding more anxiously.
If your baby's spitting up is occasional and not accompanied by other concerning symptoms like diarrhea or persistent vomiting, it's typically not a major issue. However, if it continues or if you notice other symptoms in your baby, it’s a good idea to consult your pediatrician to rule out any underlying issues. Keeping a food diary to track what you eat and your baby's reactions can also be helpful in identifying any specific triggers.
