Hello,
Our baby is 3 weeks old and often spits up during feeds, sometimes 1-2 hours after a feed. We do keep him upright for 30 minutes plus and do paced feeding. The health visitor suggested going onto anti reflux formula to help with it staying down. He has been on it for 12 hours and it has helped with the spit up, he still spits up small amount but it's very thick. After his fourth bottle he produced this dirty nappy which is something we have never seen.
Is this normal? Also I feel the preparation of this formula is difficult as you can't pre make and I'm following guidelines but still getting cheese like lumps at the bottom and I'm not sure he is getting enough as a good chunk is frothy then the bottom is so thick he misses that too.
How do you know if it's just mild reflux or more serious? He was gaining weight on his normal formula.
