I'm tearing my hair out and would appreciate any advice.
I dont know where to start! My 8 wk old dd is bf (never had any problems) and given a bottle at night to settle (we have the night time fussing). We think she has reflux. She sleeps in her crib at night and was unsettled (lots of wriggling and noise) until we put a wedge under her mattress. She seems to sleep better.
During the day she will not sleep anywhere other than on me. I've tried a dummy, patting her back and rocking her in her pram but she ends up screaming. She feeds almost constantly and we don't get much happy awake time. She vomits a lot but is putting on weight. The doctor prescribed gaviscon but this didn't help and I noticed a difference in her poo so was conscious of constipation. We're going back to the docs tomorrow and I'm wondering about trying the reflux formula?
Any tips on getting her to sleep in her pram and on the reflux?
Many thanks.
