Friend's baby is 1 year but as was very premature is only 9 months corrected. He is on various medications for reflux but they aren't working terribly well. He doesn't make a lot of noise (which is bothering my friend) and I suspect this is sore throats/ dmaged vocal chords from the acid damage. He's been discharged by most of his specialists as he's doing well apart from the reflux and is seeing a speech therapist for that.
So - I seem to be picking up suggestions from other posts that taking the meds at different times may help? Nestargel has been mentioned? I'm also wondering about suggesting cranial osteopathy.
They had nutramigen for a while (older brother was milk intolerant) but have gone back to a milk based formula. That surprised me a bit.
Anyone got any suggestions?
