Suspecting silent reflux

I'm thinking my little boy has got silent reflux as he shows alot of the symptoms whilst feeding (formula)
However I spoke to my auntie last week about it and from Thursday it hasn't really bothered him but from last night it seems to of come back, can that happen?
He was also born at 35 weeks

How old is he? How does he react to lying flat?

@MrsMaow he's just over 6 weeks but was born 5 weeks early. His Moses baskets are propped up as he doesn't like being propped up

Could well be then, my DD had symptoms intermittently at that age and then by the time she was 7 or 8 weeks it was all the time, I think you should go to GP but try to get a feed on video first so they can see how bad it is otherwise you’ll probably just get told that babies cry/fuss/sick and it’s normal

I found a website with a list of symptoms of silent reflux. My wee one had nearly all of them, went onto a dairy free formula and has been fine since.

I'll try to find the name of the website, it was very useful.

@slowdownplease my LO does all of those symptoms apart from smelly nappies.

@MrsMaow I've been prescribed infant gaviscon but the bottle I've just gave him without it on as I've come shopping he's been fine with so I'm not sure whether to give it him or not x
