So my six week old has reflux - they pukey kind, not silent. DC1 barely ever puked so I don't know how to deal with it. The Dr has offered be Gaviscon but she's EBF and its a massive pita to give, so am wondering if there's anything else I can do that might help. Some days are much worse than others so wondering if there are particular triggers? E.g. Things I'm eating maybe?
For the most part she's a happy puker although when it's a long time after a feed it upsets her, I guess because of the acid.
Weight so far is ok although it's progressively getting worse so am a bit worried about that.
So - any tips? It's exhausting. She's so long at the boob it's disheartening to have it come up all over her/me/the sofa AGAIN.
