Hi Emma my little girl is 22 weeks and on Losec Mups and ocassionally she has bought back up the little black beads and it wasn't until I read that Alison Scott Wrights book where she mentions that a baby who is taking these 'that this is…

Hi Jenny My 3yr old had reflux, the very sicky type, no other symtons and no visible distress by it so Pead put her on Enfamil AR and she took to this very well. Previously had not drunk much milk before, so with this she drank slightly more and was…

Karen, spoke to my Paed. he said to stay off solids for 7 days and then slowly reintroduce again. she may have reacted to something and this made her all upset. once i wean her again, if she becomes all bad again, he said to call back and he will…

Di replied to Karen Bright's discussion 'Health Visitor has really upset me'

I agree with all of the comments re HV - I dont see any point of seeing them. the last time I saw my HV she made me cry....she didn't know anything about reflex; telling me that I'm wasting time + money seeing specialist...that I should…

Christine replied to Karen Bright's discussion 'Health Visitor has really upset me'

I personally HV's are a waste of time and resources. when my baby was surving on 10ozs of milk per day i was told i was 'perhaps' overdressing her and to try changing her nappy lol! it is about survival for us. our babies don't…

Anna, once you have spoken with your Pead could you let me know what he says?

Karen Bright replied to Karen Bright's discussion 'Health Visitor has really upset me'

Thanks for your replies guys it really helps to get other people's opinions esp mums who have children with reflux. The situation has been in the first couple of months the crying and screaming but eventually taking the bottle but poor intake.…

geribstewart replied to Karen Bright's discussion 'Health Visitor has really upset me'

I don't agree with the HV either, complete and utter rubbish. I've read in so many books there is no risk of a baby choking on milk if they are fed asleep. They also say not to bother burping a sleeping baby as they are so relaxed, they…

Anna Curtis replied to Karen Bright's discussion 'Health Visitor has really upset me'

hi personally i do not think there is a risk of choking, or in other words, not bigger risk than when drinking awake do what you have to do, with a refrlux baby it is about survival dont let hv upset you, most of them do not realise or…
