Hi

I have a 10 week old baby girl and currently breastfeeding. At around 6 weeks she began to have problems breastfeeding crying refusing to latch on or take a bottle of expressed milk. I was really concerned with her weight as she was missing 2-3 feeds in a 24hr period. When I went for our 6 week check up the doctor seemed to think it was reflux and prescribed gaviscon and omperazole. The gaviscon was a nightmare to give so I gave up and continued with the omperazole which worked for two weeks then suddenly we were back to refusing feeds and screaming at the breast. I have reintroduced the gaviscon which I think works but feel she is now experiencing pain in her tummy.
Has anyone experienced this and have advise of what to try?

Hi :-) know this is from a while ago but I'm going through the exact same scenario with my 8 week old and am really struggling, wondering how you are getting on now? Did you find anything that helped? X
