17 day old vomits after every feed and not putting on weight, paediatrician doctor Said possible reflux and to keep him up after feed and sleep him in a tilted position so I need a wedge for his next to me crib and his Moses basket but lullaby trust advises against this. Any links to any wedges I can purchase or anything safe to use

We just put a couple of books under the top legs of the cot!!! Worked a treat

If they're not putting on weight, that's quite serious reflux. You need to go to the doctor again. Putting a wedge won't sort such a severe issue.

Use a ringbinder or lever arch file under the cot mattress

Argos book was ideal, but not sure if you can get them now
