"When my ds was on Domperidone it made him sleep more. He could only stay awake an hour then he'd have 2-3 hours sleep. It also caused a slight bleed in his stomach so I'm glad it was stopped."

I bought one of these when I was desperate to get my LO to sleep - it's the one to fit a cotbed.  Bought it from the baby reflux website. It cost me £21.99 plus P&P.  I used it for one night and, as my son is so active in bed, it didn't really do much.  So I didn't use it again. And then miraculously my son started sleeping better..... Bit of a waste of money for me.  However, I'd now like to sell it on to someone who would benefit from it more than I did.  Ideally collection from Sutton…See More
