Hi all,
This is my first post on mumsnet! My baby has been suffering with silent reflux since 2weeks. I’ve recently introduced Aptamil anti reflux formula (it’s been a week now) and my baby’s poo has gone from the usual korma like poo to doing pellet strained poos literally after every feed.
i’ve also been expressing milk and adding carobel as a thickener. Both have been working a treat for her reflux but she has been doing at least 10-12 pellet poos a day. Is it possible to have diarrhoea with hard poos? Could this be the carob bean gum/locus gum found in the thickeners? Should i be worried about dehydration as she isn’t doing diarrhoea like poos... just hard ones very frequently. I’ve started her on SMA anti reflux milk today.
Sorry for long post!
