Hey all.
Looking for some advice
My 8 week old baby, since around 2 weeks old has got very sick after every feed, and sometimes even when he’s not been fed, and a lot of the time it isn’t just falling out of his mouth, its Coming out pretty violently sometimes, sometimes it has been highlighter yellow and lime. And when he was really poorly it was dark green. When he’s awake he just cry’s and screams none stop. He literally cries all the time if he has his eyes open, I think he’s in pain or discomfort. He has just came out of hospital after 4 days from having bronchitis & an infection, he was being really sick in hospital, with green vomits too, but they put that down too it being bile due to him Sicking all of his feeds up due to being unwell.
I explained so many times that he has been sick pretty much since birth and it just seems to be getting worst, but they put it down to reflux still.
He has been on reflux meds for weeks but nothing helps him, omeprozole liquid doesn’t seem to have any effect. And Gaviscon infant still makes him sick yet it makes the sick very thick to the point he chokes, like thick cottage cheese. Sorry for tmi.
I’ve rang the gp, and asked if he can request he has a clinic app so I can ask for further tests. He said he will. I’m not sure how long I’ll have to wait but in the mean time I’m looking for some advice from fellow parents who may have had the same issue.
Does any one have any insight to this, are they right in saying it’s reflux iyo? And if so, how can I make him more comfortable? He seems to be uncomfortable all day and night; and he’s only 8 weeks so I really don’t want to dose him up with calpol all of the time.
Any advice at all would be helpful.
Thank you !
