"Very pleased for you. Sounds like you have had a seriously tough time. Xxx"

"Can I also add that poppy slept well and was by the far the least unwell out of all the girls I've met on here's children,, despite this I coped the least well .  I can assure you everbody on here is trying to help and support you.i…"

"Bloody Iphone"

"Hello girls. I also had a milk refuser and I totally lost my mind. I also syringes milk down her, 20 mls every 15 mins. Sadly I refuses to believe that poppy had a cmpi and fierce fed her aptamil. She ended up on 30 mg omperazole. She eventually…"

"All I can add is that you are seeking advice from a too consultant at the worlds leading children's hospital and you can trust dr shah's advice. Stick with neocate and lansoprazole and await his review appointment.  Good luck x"

"Which are hospital are you under? "

"Hi I have a two year old with cmpi and secondary reflux and bowel problems. It took going to GOSH at 14 months to finally get a diagnosis of cmpi. At that time she was on rantidine, omerazole 30 mg and domperidone. She took yogurt and milk out of…"

"My daughter was the same. It may have been due to laying down more when breast feeding therfore more of a back wash or may have been she associated breast with pain not bottle. Just give the milk ant which way you can while they will drink it. Xx"

"Will he take porridge instead of milk? I wish I hadn't forced poppy to have milk as I'm sure that's now why she won't drink fluid. She is a good eater now though ( typical fussy 2 year old)"

"Hi I really feel for you. I have a two year old who I had a nightmare with milk feeds with. She never loved milk but used to go through periods of total milk refusal every 6 weeks. We used to increase omerazole dose by 1-2 mg and seemed to really…"

"Hi Sarah just realised you don't live that far from me, I'm in hove. Did you go to the royal alex in Brighton? We have been under dr Rahman and dr butt, both of which are shit. Not heard of dr candy? Xxx"

"I really appreciate the tips. In the last 2 weeks she has gone from 11 kg to 10.3 kg. I guess it's because dairy has so much fat. She doesn't eat sweet things at all otherwise I'd fatten her up with cake. Thanks girls xxx"
