Hi, my girl now 7months. Had trouble feeding since day 1. At under 2 weeks she was put on gaviscon. At 6 weeks we went to bottle feeding and prescribed Zantac. At 13 weeks admitted to hospital put on dairy free formula and put on omeprazole classed as failure to thrive. Now at 7 months she's still failire to thrive, had every formula going and still refuses all day long. Can take upto 2 hours for 2oz. Slipping off, clicking, dribbling. Tried every bottle, every size teat and 7 sippys. Some days are better than others. Been weaning for 2.5 months and now she refuses the spoon she just can't do it bless her. With finger food she grabs it bring it to her mouth but once it's in her mouth she struggles. It sits for a few minutes and then is spat out or half us spat out and half swallowed. It's very upsetting to see. I have noticed that she has an upper lip tie class 3 or 4. And I think she may have a tongue tie. We saw out doc who said tongue tie can't affect feeding, that's an old wives tale. I do think if it was a tie they would have spotted it but as my mother says, they have never looked in her mouth or done any test.
Any advice would be so greatly appreciated.
Thank you
