Infant Gaviscon

[DontShootTheDog]

sorry to keep banging on about it, but how do you actually administer it? Any tips? I am using less water than it says and syringing it in back of cheek but it takes ages, wakes him up and gets dribbled out a lot. Can it be mixed with breast milk instead and would that help?

not sure why this is in sleep - but pop 15/20ml of breast milk in a bottle and mix the gaviscon into that, only way i can get it into dd. i then breastfeed once she has finished that.

i dont do it the other way round, as otherwise she's full and wont take the bottle.

good luck
