Hi all,

DS is almost 4 months and has been on reflux milk for a couple of months now. How long should we keep him on reflux milk? Until he totally stops being sick or when he reaches a certain age? A FTM so feeling a bit lost.
Thank you

Baby should be on formula for the first year of life. If the anti reflux milk suits, there’s no need to change Smile

For as long as your paediatrician advises. Ds with severe reflux was also under the care of a paediatric dietician who gave advice on early weaning etc.

Thank you both. He is still being sick after feeds and up until his next feed. Some days worse than others. Shall we keep going with the milk or see the GP?

Is he in distress when he’s being sick? Do his symptoms sound anything like this?
