Hi, I'm really worrying about my 11wk old dd. She has been diagnosed with reflux and is on domperidone and zantac (ratinidine). We only started these on friday evening - they are having an effect but some feeds are still obviously hurting her. How long do these meds take to work?
Since the reflux got really bad and she's been on the meds she has only been taking reduced feeds and just doesn't seem hungry. She was having 5oz every 4hrs. She is now having feeds about every 5-6hrs and will sometimes only have 1/2 the feed but does usually take a bit more than that.
She also seems to be sleeping more. She is happy when awake and doesn't appear to be in pain.
She will take some of the bottle but then won't take anymore and goes red in face, kicking legs and turning her head away.
Sorry for confused post, I'm just really worried about her. Can anyone let me know:
- how long the meds take to work
- if the amount she is taking at each feed is still enough
Also any other advice is v welcome!!
