Brown sugar works well, but it can be harsh, like giving her a strong laxative. If you need to give her gaviscon in the future, try to give her 10 - 20 ml water a day as well.

I think the gaviscon is what has done it. She was going every day until I started it. Will be seeing if the doctor can do anything else for her reflux. I have been massaging and trying to bicycle her legs but she gets quite upset when I do. She's finally asleep but when she wakes I might go have a warm bath with her. I'll see if I can syringe some water into her, she won't drink it from a bottle.
