Infant Gaviscon

[LucyBee]

We've been prescribed this today as the doctor thinks Tom may have silent reflux.
Anyone got any positive tales to tell me about Infant Gaviscon?
We've been told to give him half a sachet three times a day.

Harrison is on two sachets for every bottle and it works treat

how do they know if its reflux? Alfies always thrown bits back could that be it?

Harrison ever since he was born throws back a bit of his bottle, it can be straight after up to like two hours, he doesnt projectile it though, there are some babies that do

EDIT: when i mentioned it to the Doctor he asked me a few questions like, does he gulp down the first bit of the bottle, can you hear it going into his tummy, is the sick lumpy?

Arianna was on it to when she was first born as she had projectile vomit (quite impressive how far she could get it!! )

It worked excellent! I had to put one sachet in to every 2nd bottle.
