Reflux in baby

[wishfulyf]

Hello all, has any of you ever had a baby with severe reflux?

My baby who is now 5 months has severe reflux , we have been back and fourth to the gp so many times , baby has been on 8 different formulas , has had thickening powders for feeds, has been on gaviscon and still spews up feeds like nothing normal.

My GP isn't much help anymore. Has anyone had a refluxy baby? When did it ease? Is there anything you did that cured ? Baby has been awake 2 hours, has had a 9oz bottle and has been changed 3 times. Bibs be soaked, baby grow & vest gets soaked as well as even his skin.

I really wish I could help him! It hasn't been easy this has been going on since he was 6 weeks, he's now 23 weeks!

Hi just came across this and need to ask has your dc taken any milk down at all is he having wet/poo nappies!! I ask because my youngest ds became very very poorly at 2/3 weeks old with what the drs thought was reflux, literally the same, couldn't keep anything down at all everything soaked through utterly utterly horrendous, and when I came across pyloric stenosis on the Internet I went and told the drs who in turn told me to carry on with the milks and persevere with feeding, they thought he had reflux/ babymilk allergies, it turns out I was right and by 9weeks old I was in a and e crying my eyes out because he essentially was dying and was told by a consultant immediately it's pyloric stenosis and how the GPS didn't spot it, the consultant couldn't fathom that either! My son had the worst vitals the consultant had seen in a baby for 25years! The last straw was when I called for an ambulance before hot tailing it to a&e and they wouldn't come out because my ds was and i quote "just being sick"!!
I'm definitely not trying to scare you honestly, and I know all babies are different, but pyloric stenosis rears it's ugly head from 2 weeks up to 6months, and it can be spotted on an ultrasound and is very easily corrected with surgery! My daughter who is 12 weeks old now has similar symptoms to my ds and I'm stressing every time she throws up now but I'm just hoping its not that (touchwood) same for your little one too and I hope you find some respite and help and it gets easier soon for you I know how miserable it is for you and your dbaby 😔
