My baby is 8 weeks old and has reflux so bad won’t stop crying 😫 I’ve been giving her gripe water infacol calpol today as she had her first jabs she’s on aptamil stage one and I use mams bottles
She always crys when going for a poo every 3 days and past week she keeps being sick I have rang health visitor but she still hasn’t got back to me.
Do you think changing her milk to aptamil comfort milk might help? Or if anyone knows anything else that could work she is in so much pain bless her

My wee boy had bad reflux. Tried everything.. prescription milk, all different bottles.. infacol, dentinox, was prescriped carobel for his milk? losec mups then omperprazole (liquid) none of which seemedd to be working. I put him onto aptamil comfort and was like a completely different baby. I didnt like the reflux milk as it made him constipated and just added to the pain. Hes now 6 months and still on aptamil comfort x
My baby had reflux, she would projectile vomit after every feed. I took her to gp and the prescribed baby gaviscon. It worked brilliantly. Although she also needed a bit of lactose as gaviscon and hungry baby milk (not sure about comfort) can cause constipation. We had to keep her upright for 30 min after every feed and raise one end of her bed. I was worried I was wasting the doctors time but he was lovely.
My son suffered really bad!
I put him onto the aptimal anti-reflux milk which made a massive difference!
With the NUK bottles…
Also I baught reflux mats to put inside the mosses basket & pram to ease up… cos it’s so discomforting for them to be lay flat 🙁
he was also prescribed gaviscon & ranitidine from his doctors
And it’s like he was a completely different baby
I would definitely ask your doctor to prescribe medicine and change the milk! X
Check for a tongue tie first as its quite a common issue and biggest symtom is reflux and qlot of crying for a bottle fed baby. Simple fix without any meds so worth a look.
Also look into cows milk protein intolerance and see if any other symtoms are starting to come through as it could be a buildup reaction.
Failing all that speak to your gp for infant gaviscon and see how you go. Dont start changing milks without a drs or hvs advice.
Good luck x
Baby gaviscon & prescription milk my little boy had. I found infacol made him worse!! Phone your gp cos the health visitor can’t prescribe them xx
My little one had dreadful reflux he is 14weeks now has only just settled he is now on gavascon rinitadine and ameprozole. He is sick alot still but dose not cry and scream so much and I can actually put him down. My little one is on Aptimale pepti as also has a dairy allergy.
Go to docs say ur baby isnt keeping food down and constantly in pain with it they will fit u in and more than likely give u gaviscon powder i remember when my lg was like this i was exhausted i took her doc got the gaviscon and that afternoon was the most peaceful since she had been born! Good luck x
I moved my son onto aptamil reflux milk and he was a changed baby! Just gave him an oz of water a day to help him with his poops because it gave him constipation 🙂
My daughter had really bad reflux to the point she stopped gaining weight!… she was on prescription milk called neocate as she’s also cows milk intolerant and she had a milk thicker called carobel in to help keep the milk down and it worked wonders! No problems at all
My 8 week old has this I took her to gp they give her prescription milk and gavascon sachets and she is much better . Make an appt and take her to see the gp x
Thickener in usual milk made my daughter a different baby so much happier x
Ask your gp if they can prescribe infant gaviscon,works wonders.the powder goes in the milk,it reacts with the stomach to form a gel,bit like a thickening agent,the gel then thickens the milk to make it harder to come back up xx
Get some Lactulose, and baby Gaviscon, you can get Cow and Gate reflux milk too xx
My son Is 12 weeks and had reflex doctor has him on caribe lol in bottles to help
My littlen has cmpa and reflux but is on renitidine carobel and prescription milk called similac alimentum
I used the cow and gate special milk for reflux with gaviscon prescribed by the doctors
Do you mean baby is opening bowels every three days? If so this will be causing a lot of pain too
Bless her definitely need to take her docs 1st thing xxx
