Hi guys.
Baby is 4 months old. Had horrendous colic and reflux since 2 weeks old he was 3 weeks early. The colic is settling down slightly but the reflux is still bad. And this boy is SOOOO hard to burp. He is like demon child when it comes to stopping. I can't work out if it's temper or pain. Every time I take bottle away to burp he screams and same after he's finished! He's on 7oz every 3 hours and sleeps through the night so he's on enough. Any tips for burping? I can't lay him down due to the reflux. We have tried infacol Dentinox Colief all sorts. We had gaviscon and it constipated him and now ranitidine is prescribed but I'm hesitate! Helppppp. X

Have you tried lots of different positions for burping? My older DS did better with being quite literally lifted up and down (with head supported obv) like a ninja rather than the traditional patting on back etc.

@Mrscog it's quite hard sometimes as he will bring up a lot of his milk depending what position :(
