My little boy is nearly 1 and still has silent reflux. He starts nursery school in January and I’m so worried about it. His diet is so restricted, there are so many things that trigger it (tomatoes, garlic, onion, potato, oats, banana, avocado, the list goes on) I don’t know how they are going to feed him and also understand him and his needs. If he eats the wrong food, he will scream in pain for hours. I feel so alone. I had one reflux mum friend but now her boy has grown out of it, I literally never hear from her anymore. She never asks how my boy is doing but always sharing how great her son is getting on.
I just can’t believe at 1 year we are still going through this as a family 😠when will this end?!
We’ve tried Omeprazole many times and nothing has helped. Gaviscon makes him constipated and he already struggles with his tummy as it is. He has regular cranial osteopath treatment and we give him some natural remedies too, but it just won’t go away 😢 Not sure what the point to this post is… but it just feels so unfair 💔 I also feel like the reflux is stopping his full potential and development as he spends so much time being in pain or upset. I can’t do this anymore.
