    Have you tried adding a thickener to the milk or using anti reflux milk? That's what we had to do with our youngest but she just grew out of it in the end x

    Hi, If it is really bad, make an appointment with your GP and maybe ask for a referral. My little boy was seen at a local hospital clinic as he suffered terribly with it and was prescribed Ranitidine which really helped. x

    Carobel is good but use sparingly it's very gloopy and made the milk too thick to go through the teat unless I watered it down lol x

    My daughter also had silent reflux. I didn't even know it existed until my hv suggested it. I just thought she was a whingy baby, felt quite bad when it turned out she was actually in pain 😱. We put her on reflux comfort milk, which made a big difference. She has a pillow in her cot too. 

    hope you sort your lo one out soon. It can drive you to the edge xxx
