Reflux formula's your opinions please

[ShootingStar]

This is the bit I Dont get, I dont have a spewer (has done it once and think that was my fault) yet the GP thinks he has reflux. What other symptoms is there?
He was doing fine on the normal formula i was giving him. Think when this free tin is done I will go back to that or try the normal karicare one

DD2 has silent reflux. They dont spew up.. they will regurgitate it up then swallow it back down. So it is actually more damaging than regular reflux as the acids going back down cause double the damage. Signs for DD2 were/are crying when feeding and arching her back, crying when burping, frequent hiccups (and crying throughout them), she would wake after a small sleep due to reflux, you would see her eyes water and the area around her eyes go red, she would and sometimes still gets acid attacks, where whenever acids come up she cries hysterically.. sometimes she will dribble them out others you can hear her swallowing them back down. So even though they dont puke they can still have reflux.

DD2 is on regular Karicare. We recently saw a pediatrician for her silent reflux and she recommended to stay away from the Gold formulas (which she was originally on) as they cause alot of problems with their tummies too. Im also adding just half a scoop of the Karicare thickener to her feed (of 150mls) and that seems to be working well for her.. pediatrician said that was fine to do.. so like everyone has mensioned, you could just try putting in a little with his regular formula and see how he goes.
