Before a few days ago I never knew silent reflux existed in infants. He's always shown signs of it, I guess I just didn't know because I didn't know what to look for. Weirdly enough they've always been kind of mild, now at 6 weeks he's gotten worse. Crying during feeds. Not comfortable on his back for long. Not spitting up but when his stomach bubbles, moments later the milk comes up to the back of his throats and he screams for dear life! Arching his body, jabbing his legs and arms. I cry every day because it's so hard to watch him go through this. We are currently on Zantac but there's not much of a difference. I read about something called 'aptamil'i think. Im considering trying it but being in the Bahamas makes it so difficult to find certain things. If anyone has any tips that I can do to help him be more comfortable, please feel free to message me.
