My baby was diagnosed with silent reflux at 5-6 weeks when she suddenly changed from this great sleeping, feeding baby to day's and nights of spin shivering screams, no sleeping and no sleep for everyone. My first baby never had this and I had'nt heard of silent reflux and no idea what it was, I only knew of reflux which is where they vomit alot, but my baby wasnt vomiting so I had no idea. Once I was explained the difference and how painful it can be, I felt like the worse mother as I had this poor baby in pain and I thought it was because she was being a stinker and wanted to be held all the time. Anyway after a couple of months of getting the correct amount of medication (Losec)that suited her she turned into this happy, bubbly ,better sleeper and feeder of a baby, she is 9 mths now and is still on the medication but we have been slowly been able to reduce the amount of medication. To any family that has to go through this I simpathise completly it is a rough road but at the end of the day its only temopary and they could of been diagnosed with something worse.
