Hi everyone. A little advice needed if possible. We have had a rough time with out 6 week preemie who is now 12 weeks actual. After 4 weeks we eventually got him diagnosed with silent reflux, after gaviscon we now have ranitidine and it seems to be working a little. The only issue is for the last week (only had ranitidine 4 days) he has only been taking 3-4oz every 2.5-3 hours where as before this he would stretch to 4 hourly and would take 4-5. Is this normal? I'm pulling my hair out as he is waking during the night 3 times and the after his 4am ish feed he only settles for an hour and is very unhappy unless picked up, any ideas guys? I'm at a loss 🤔
TIA
