Or is he coughing because he is gagging on the food?
Does he have gaviscon?
When Evie had a bad cough last year she would cough that much that she would be sick everywhere... but his only lasted a few days....
Its so bad my older boys now cry everytime baby starts to cough, when he is sick it is really violent
He has never had reflux or colic do you think gaviscon cld help?

Your bound to worry about it hun as all us mothers do when anything is wrong with our lo's. It will pass eventually.
Take care

Can i just check that your lo's had projectile (it goes about 4 feet) and its in two or three bouts.
Thanks again

If you can't settle then you could always ring NHS later tonight.
Good luck either way. Hope he's better soon.

Hv and Gp said not to worry, just make sure lo doesn't dehydrate etc. I also try to keep him sat upright for a little while after each feed to try to help the milk settle.
I don't think Gaviscon would help really as it seems to be caused by the coughing rather than any sort of reflux.
Hope it gets better soon. xxxx
I thought i wld worry less as he is my third but i think i worry more esp when things like this happen which didnt happen to DS1&2.

My lo is 13 months and she has been doing this for 6 days now. I've been going out of my mind and the doctor just said it's just the common cold give her orange juice! So glad I found this post. How long did it last in the end?
