Reflux in babies.

[Idobelieveinfairies]

My nephew is still being very sick after being fed. He always has been since birth a very sicky baby..but i know a lot are (mine were). Not been a problem and still had good weight gain.

He is now the grand old age of 9 months! and having lots and lots of finger foods and proper meals but is still so sick afterwards. Should he be seeing the g.p now? If so is their anything that can actually be done?? or will he just grow out of it??

i would say yes from experience. My ds had severe reflux and would projectile vomit every single feed up but as his weight was fine the gps kept saying i was being a nurotic first time mum. Cut a long story short he was on Domperidone and omperazole until he was 1, couldnt lay him down after feeds etc etc. So yes he has grown out of the relux sickness but still has a very sensitive gap relex and some foods will make him sick like ready brek, jelly etc. You dont say how often he is being sick and wether or not it bothers him? Wether he's in pain? If he crys after/during i would say def go gp as his osophagus will be getting burnt by the acid coming up his throat and gp can give him medicine for that

Hi, it dosen't seem to bother him at all tbh! But he seems to be constantly hungry-his weight is fine though.

He is sick lots and lots...can be a good hour (and a bit more) and he will still sick up his food. Worse with milk as its like a tap has been turned on!

It dosen't seem to matter what food he has..he will always bring some of it back up.

He is crawling around now which has made it a little worse again as he is pressing on his tummy a lot more....and then proceeds to scrape it along the floor with him...lol

Oh the joys!..lol

i would go to the doc myself though. Prob hyngry because his little belly empty! Have you considered he may have a milk allergy? My ds has dairy allergy and soya intollerance so has nanny goats milk. Soon as he was off dairy, also made a diff. Worth considering...?

Thanks for that i will definately advise my sister to take him to the doctor to check him out.
