help me
Hiya everyone, my little girl (11 wks) has got severe reflux and whooping cough, she has just come out of hospital after 7wks and im running out of ideas to help her get through this. The Omeprazole is not helping her but they just wont listen to me. I will be grateful for any new ideas. thanks

Reflux can be tackled by medication, positioning and milk. Perhaps she could have a thickener to encourage the milk to stay down?
I would keep in regular contact with your HV/ GP and make sure you tell them exactly how worried you are. If they won't listen keep a diary for a few days to show how often she is bringing milk up or how often/ how long she is crying for. It should get better over time but if she needs a bit more help then she needs it NOW !
Thank goodness she is out of hosp (they would prob give you some advice though if GP won't).
Good Luck x
this stuff is great and worked from the first dose with my son who had reflux really bad as a baby x

Thanks for all your support and advice

just wanted to add that one of my girls (stevie) used to have "blue episodes" not breathing at all for up to 3 minutes at a time!! and it was because of wind and her inability to manage it, she was under the docs for ages because of it but she has now grown out of it, it was just because she was prem.
Hope everything works out with the docs and you get the answers and help your lo needs xx
