Are you breastfeeding or bottle? We used Infact Gaviscon but I assume the premise is the same. We had two bottles, one with milk one with the Gaviscon. Gave a bit of milk, then Gav then quickly switch back to milk. Bit of a faff but you do what you have to do! We couldn't add it to the bottle of milk as it made the milk go solid.

My grandson hated it , we put the syringe into the side of his mouth, squirted a bit in as far back as we could, followed swiftly by his bottle.
