5 month old DD has been on Gavescon infant since 3 weeks old for reflux. Got her weighed by practice nurse yesterday and got bollocked for DD still being on Gav. Did 2 feeds yesterday without it and vast oceans of puke plus upset crying baby later mean I've put the Gav back in the bottles today. GP just says 'sure, whatever you think yourself' (GRRRR NOT helpful). Also wary as nurse said re: Gav that babies grow out of colic by 5 months anyway (WTF?! I did say Do you mean reflux? but she ignored me). So just wondering if anyone has any general guidance on how long to keep using Gav for. Not going to wean till 6 months, but what happens then? Also, do you need to wean them off eg use half a sachet etc. DD's still struggling to take 6 oz bottle - been taking same amount of feed since early Sept at 3 months old, though is slowly gaining weight. I only use one sachet in each bottle(5 feeds per day; pack says max 6 doses per day) and this seems to work ok. Any advice appreciated. And it's a 'country' practice in every sense of the word so no other partners available for 2nd opinion.... Thanks in advance....
