JoanneRider replied to Victoria's discussion 'Storm after the calm'
Hi there Victoria and Belinda My LO now 28 weeks old diagnosed with reflux at 9 weeks and is currently on the PPI Lansoprazole and Pepti Junior milk with Carobel thickener. She has been finding it very difficult to make much progress on weaning and…

Victoria replied to JoanneRider's discussion 'Big trouble trying weaning onto baby rice - Has anyone else had similar problems with their reflux baby?'
Sorry hun I think I am one of the ones whose babies reflux gets better with solids - she still struggles with milk terribly but solids are great - since I have been giving her solids she sleeps better and is generally happier - best move I made -…

Hi I have an 8 month old reflux baby. We have had a lot of trouble at times with solids, I am told that reflux babies produce more mucus which makes them more likely to gag but he has always gagged terribly and been very sick. It's very hard…

Hi Clare You should also cut out wheat if you are breast feeding, I found that helped as well. Plus soya and egg. You should avoid all the main allergens. The only time my son (now three) was ok when breast fed was when I totally avoided all the…

JoanneRider commented on Sara Robinson's blog post 'When to give Renitidine'
Hi Sara - my GP unfortunately did not seem to know, we had to go back to hospital after a second very severe reflux attack - repeated projectile vomitting, mottled skin, unresponsive after a 3-hours screaming session and that is when they confirmed…

JoanneRider commented on Sara Robinson's blog post 'When to give Renitidine'
Hi there Sara My lo used to be on ZANTAC Renitidine three times per day at 0.6 ml and then the dose was increased to 1ml 3x per day until we had to change to a PPI five weeks ago as the Renitidine was not providing any relief for her - I think its…

Someone said to me the other day that a baby isn't going to do something that makes them feel poorly. Obvious I know but it kind of hit home to me with my son and weaning. So if she is taking less and less milk, I'd agree she sounds like…

Oh and my paed said not to worry too much about weaning if it wasn't working. It isn't ideal but it is ok to leave them until 8 or 9 months if that is what they need - it isn't going to do them any long term harm. Clare

Clare Good replied to JoanneRider's discussion 'Big trouble trying weaning onto baby rice - Has anyone else had similar problems with their reflux baby?'
Hi Joanne, Yes weaning made things worse for us. My son either wasn't ready or was just too sore with the acid but we've been trying for 3 months (he's now 8 months) and are only just seeing an improvement. And all he can manage is…

Also, one other thought - all the alternative milks are composites of dairy, so neocate the least offensive. I would not push weaning if you have all those problems. You do not want to end up with oral aversion like Stella. I would just try tastes…

Honestly, it is a minefield. All very complicated and exhausting and worrying. Poor you! And poor little Poppy! By the way, I found pepti junior the worst of all the milks. Stella had never done massive projectile vomits until I gave her that. I…

Hi There Ginny! Thank you so much for all your recent postings, which I have been reading with a great deal of interest. I think that you are right that there is alot going on with Poppy which may indicate further allergies as she is already on…

That's what my daughter did, it was a severe milk allergy, but she is also allergic to wheat, gluten and soy and probably other things we don't know. You need to go completely dairy free first, your baby should be on neocate. It will not…
