My 8 week old DS has been being very sick after a feed since about 4 weeks old.
I'm breast feeding and he has one aptamil bottle at night, but it makes no difference. Sometimes it will be straight after the feed and others it will be half an hour to an hour afterwards. I know that babies are sick, however, this is ALOT of sick that will just keep coming out of him. Sometimes they are really curdled and look like they must taste disgusting. He gets quite stressed afterwards and often cries. He brings up his wind fine and can burp and then be sick afterwards, but rarely both at the same time. Sometimes he won't be sick straight after the feed, he'll be fine for a while, bring up his wind fine, be quite happy and then all of a sudden you feel his little body lurch and out comes an absolute torrent.
I took him to the dr's and they gave him some infant gaviscon, which worked for 10days and then just stopped working. It also made him constipated which caused him to cry in pain. Would really like some ideas, support... anything really.
He is putting on weight fine and produces lots of wet nappies so I know that there's maybe nothing to worry about but it's just so much sick and he'll do it at night, a few times I've woken up to him gagging on it, which is frightening enough but it was 4 hours after he had fed and it just doesn't seem right. Health Visitor has been useless and just says that that's what babies do but she's not been able to offer any advice about anything I've asked her, so I stopped asking and now she's stopped coming, which is fine by me.
