Hi Anna, If you look on my profile you may see some advice I have given others. Callum now 19 months is amazing since visiting Dr Shah and having his dietician. Would type it all again but if you look at advice i given before it should help.

Hi Amanda,
If you read mt thread it will tell you my story. I use 1oz of pure pear juice to sweeten the milk. Callum could only tolerate neocate as it has no milk protiens at all, just amino acids. Callum has a specialist dietician in london who…

Hello,
Pleased to hear that your lo has started treatment Helen, hope you see an improvement soon. Harrison has started his meds and i've started weaning as advised by the paed and he is much better, though a couple of times I have had to give…

Hi Helen
We've seen the Paed this week and he's given us Ranitadine . I'm just a bit concerned as he's given us 0.4ml & Poppy weighs 6.25kg (13lb 13oz) she's not put on any weight in the last 2 weeks! He's also…

Hi Karen, Hope you have seen the Paed this week and got your questions answered. I am really not sure about the gurgling noise, I assume she doesn't have a floppy larynx or anything? Reflux kids do have a cough but not one like you are…

Hi Amanda,
So glad you got to the GP today and whilst it is a shame he would not refer you (SO much arrogance amongst Dr's!) I am pleased to hear you have Ranitidine. Yes, the dose is important but there is a scale within that so hopefully the…

That really is annoying that your Gp wouldn't refer you to a Paed to my mind it's your right. From what I can gather the ranitadine is weight depend. Helen I think that is great that you come on to support us mums in a tough times.…

Hi girls, well i went to the GP today and he prescribed me some ranitidine to try and would not refer me to the pead in southampton which i was quite annoyed about.. i asked a few times too!!! He wanted me to try a 'normal' formula and the…

Great that you saw the Paed Anna, I really hope that you start to see an improvement in Harrison. What did the Paed think about your restricted diet whilst breastfeeding? Shame he won't take a bottle as when I mentioned Fennel tea I meant it…

Hi Anna,
Thats great news that you saw your pead and now have some medication, hopefully he will be a much happier baby!! I am going back to the GP tommorow to see if i can get an appointment with a pead. I am so sick of having more bad days than…
Anna replied to Amanda Thomas's discussion 'Breastfed baby with reflux'
Hello everyone,
Well I got an early appointment with a paed! Hooray, they rang yesterday and asked me to go today, so we have just got back. He seemed knowledgable and has prescribed ranitidine and domperidone for Harrison so i'm hoping…

Hi Amanda, I have just been pointed in the direction of this group and saw your post and replies etc and our babies are similar in age Poppy is 24 1/2 weeks now. She's my 3rd baby and exclusively BF until 23 weeks. Our reflux wasn't…

Hello again,
Well, I went to he gp again today and felt like a I just about begged for a refferal to paed team but she did agree and thinks there's about a two week list so hoping its sooner rather than later. She was unwilling to prescribed…

Hi Helen and Amanda,

thanks helen for your reply X
Helen replied to Amanda Thomas's discussion 'Breastfed baby with reflux'
Hi Amanda & Anna,
I know that no parent wants to give their child drugs but your babies need to be on stronger stuff than Gaviscon. It makes me furious that the GP's still have so little understanding of reflux. There are no side effects…
