MR when we started the meds we were in a really hard place - nothing else was working and he was so distressed - and the dose was so low that we were happy with the decision to continue. I know the formula is the main culprit so I am keen to see how he transitions in the next couple of months with more foods (he's gutsing solids like no tomorrow) and switching to cow's milk at 12 months. Thank you for your advice.

He usually drinks water with his meals but not a lot. Just sips really. I'm trying to encourage more but I can't force it down him. I might try some different cups.

I've heard that banana can block them up so we've avoided that. He loves pears, and yoghurt and peaches so we're trying to use those kinds of things to help him. Its been hard - his diet has been mainly fresh fruit, veg & some meats so seeing the problem persist has been tricky. I've got some prunes to stew up as well to mix in with yoghurt too which should help.

Thanks for your help everyone.
