Silent Reflux in 11 month old, what are the treatments?

27 replies

I have felt for some time now that there's a chance my ds has silent reflux. He seems to have a lot of the symptoms anyway.

Back arching, crying suddenly, terrible sleeper waking frequently for feeds, starts eating his meals then a few minutes in starts crying then after a little break carries on eating, almost constantly runny nose etc

There are more but can't think of them right now.

I've heard they're supposed to grow out of it around this age but no sign as yet. I'm still ebf him. Am wondering if I saw the dr bf got some medication how I would get it in to him, he won't take a bottle so how can I mix it with some Milk?

Any advice on diagnosis or experiences/treatments welcome.

Please excuse any mistakes, am typing on my phone and it 'corrects' me.

Hi Dalrymps

Nothing really to add to everything that has been said but I really do hope it is getting sorted, when DD was diagnosed with reflux (day 6) and prescribed ranitidine the change in her was instant and the feeds and her sleeping were instantly better. I have also noticed since she started weaning it has made a difference as well so very pleased with that.

Keep us updated!

Last night he slept very well. 8.30-4am when he fed, he then woke again at 5.45 for a feed then slept till 7.45. He's never slept that well, ever. I don't want to get too excited but there really does seem to be a big difference since he's started taking the renitidine Smile
