I'm totally flumoxed by 14wk DS2. DS1 had reflux, not badly, controlled with inf gaviscon and gone by 6mo.
He's hiccuppy, windy (both ends), goes through phases of bobbing on and off the boob during feeds (but seems more distracted than uncomfortable). He blows spitty bubbles. He does sometime cry and arch his back when I first put him to the boob, and occasionally after, like he's anticipating pain?
He took ages to learn how to latch and bfing was a nightmare til about 3wks. Latch could still be a bit crap. I have had problems with lots of milk but I think this is better now, certainly they are not feeling as full as before.
Sometimes I hear him gulping. He possets a little bit with burps. About 3 x a week he vomits clear fluid several hours after a feed - no pain with this. He doesn't have acidy breath but sometimes the sick smells acidy.
He's generally cheerful but has the odd 'day'
His sleep is ALL OVER THE PLACE. He can go for 5-6 stretches at night sometimes, then we get the joys of last night's up-every-hour fun. Naps are a problem with 30-45min the norm.
He sometimes whinges but become very happy and smiley when I pop him down on the floor/rug/playmat. Flat on his back. Shouldn't this be painful if he has reflux?
So confused.
And if you've bothered to read this far - thank you!! Any ideas??
