Hi there,
My little one has had silent reflux since birth and wasn't diagnosed til 5 months. I just wanted to point anyone else who might be having trouble with their baby to point out symptoms and direct you to the reflux forum which has great support, information and advice from other Mums.
Symptoms of possible reflux
Arching their back whilst being fed
Screaming as soon as laid down (often worse at night)
Seeming very windy
Vomiting a lot! (but not always!)
Green, mucusy stools
Miserable and poor sleeper
Just because you're baby is showing some/ all of these symptoms doesn't mean they have reflux but you could reasonably print off this leaflet and take it to your GP to discuss. I am not medically qualified, just a Mum!!

I have attached the leaflet from the website for more information.

If I can help one parent get a diagnosis and earlier treatment then I have succeeded.
