    Unfortunately i am in WA Jocelyn, otherwise i'd love to come by..... i will email you though, thank you for the offer, that would be so helpful!

    I tried giving him it in a bottle last night but he wouldn't suck on the teat - he's never had a bottle, is it something i should persist with? (the bottle?) today i only did 10ml because 15 ml is too ridiculous.... still so much liquid.

    Also the gaviscon in general isn't really doing helping.

    Reflux in infants

    hi MammaB,
    Yes I think that might be a bit too far to come!!
    It is still way too much liquid to get in and no he won't like the bottle if he is breast fed - who would want a horrible plastic teat when you can have a nice soft nipple? Email me and we can sort something out.

    Yeah, it took Kayla a couple of goes to realise she could suck the bottle.. and you could see the completely different sucking action. We found Gaviscon pretty hopeless too.. but then I'm not convinced she had reflux anyway.. i'm sure hers was colic.
