Has anyone else's little one suffered with reflux?

[Melisastar]

I'm so fed up with gettin covered on sick every time I fed LO. Has anyone else experienced the same if so what did you find to help your LO??

[Lovestar]

Do you burp little one frequently during the feed and take breaks with LO sitting up to let the milk go down? xx

Go and see ur g.p they can prescribe gaviscon which u mix into milk to thicken it and thus hopefully keeping it down x

[Melisastar]

Try gaviscon but didn't work. Found the cow and gate reflux milk works but then I have trouble winding but seems to be fine coming out the other end he trumps away loads. Just it is a more expensive milk and because he was on hungrier milk he now wakes in the night for a feed again where he was sleepin through on hungrier milk. I do wind him during feed and keep him up right after for 20 mins at least. Think I'll just have to do the reflux and put up with doin a night feed. Xxx

Ah bless hope he grows out of it soon x

Gaviscon prescribed by the GP was the only thing that worked for us. Just wished we had tried it earlier.

How old is he/she i had problems with LO but it was a couple of mouthfuls every 20 mins he was but on baby gaviscon and then on medication from hospital but it ended up being diagnosed as a milk protien and soya allergy when he was 7 and half months everything been fine since he is 2 now and still allergic to both but happy and healthy x

My little boy was born with pneumonia and tube fed until a few days before we left the hospital, we were then given disposable hospital teats to use by cow n gate as I wasn't always able to feed. When we came home little man threw up every feed, (projectile vomit) turns out the only way he would keep his food down was by bottle feeding using these magic teats! Cost me a fortune n I had to buy them in bulk direct from cow n gate but it was worth it. All babies r different n it's just a case of trial n error but I recommend trying different things before using medicine. Good luck.
