I have been trying to find a support group for babies/toddlers/kids/teens with reflux.
I could do with the help and on sure other parents would love the help too.
My ds is 18 months. Less than 20lbs hes put less than 12lb on since birth. He reaches 9kg and is back down again! He's on a lot of meds but ph probe has shown he still suffers atleast half a day with his reflux. He's happy when he's not got food in him and Is on a high calorie milk.
He was on 75th centile and now below 2nd....

Come and share your wise words and experience.
Please don't say he will eat when he wants because he won't!

Hi there. I don't have much experience as both my boys had/have reflux which was easily controlled with gaviscon infant. However I did want to point you in the direction of www.littlerefluxers.co.uk/ for the forums more than the site, although I'm sure there are plenty of people on here with just as much experience.

Thank you very much.
My nephews reflux was controlled with gaviscon. Gaviscon made ds very constipated so had to stop it....

My ds' reflux got better instantly with Sma staydown but reoccurred when weaning, orange foods were the worst and he wss constantly sick until a few months ago. He's 2 now and is now on the 25th percentile but was always on the 0.4th until now so is steadily catching up.

We tried that too. Stay down milk didn't do anything. I think hv should be more informed about reflux as most babies get it but 85% grow out if it by 1 yr and 95 by 1 and half....
