if i would have listened to them, God knows what would have happened. i know doctors will say they're 'safe', but they told me not to change my diet! 4 of them, and a paediatrician. she's probably upset and poorly because of this. is this the one you have? I personally wouldnt use any medication, 15 weeks is too young. anyway, the dietician recommended keeping a bottle of the non dairy formula in, in case of emergency. She is still breastfed and i've had to cut dairy from my diet. she is 8 months old, i found out when she was was 4m.o when we found blood in her nappy. My baby has cow's milk protein intholerance. I'm also having problems of my own with insomnia, postnatal depression, anxiety and nightmares - should I create another topic to address this or would someone be kind enough to help? I have just been doing some research and realised that I shouldn't have given these without consulting a homeopath first so I apologise and hope I haven't caused her more problems! I gave two doses yesterday and saw a minor improvement and another dose tonight with no improvement - I think it could have worsened things as bedtime tonight was worse than ever. I've tried chamomilla 6c after recommendation from a friend. Please, I hope someone can help, I'm at my wits end. Stools aren't hard but she has huge difficulty passing them and often only goes every 5days. Always fussing, grumbling and crying out although sleeping and frequently wakes at night for seemingly no reason as she doesn't seem in pain, hungry etc.Ĭonstipation. Terrible sleeping - fights sleep, screams, thrashes around and then eventually falls asleep exhausted quite often to wake again 30minutes later. Projectile vomiting although not often (once - twice a day)Ĭrying and unsettled after feeds (Improved since LOSEC/Neocate)
Poor appetite and amount of feeding - generally 1/2 to 2/3 of what she should be taking daily for her weight and age. (improved since LOSEC/Neocate)īack arching and screaming/crying when feeding winding. Gulping feeds then fussing,crying and refusing the rest although hungry.
She is also on Neocate formula which is a 100% hypoallergenic formula in which the protein is broken down into tiny particles and pre-digested so that they cannot cause a reaction in the baby. I am keen to take her off this medication if I can find a natural remedy that works. She is currently on LOSEC (Omeprazole) 10mg daily which has made a huge improvement although the old symptoms are starting to return. She was breastfed for 3weeks and then switched to formula.įrom birth she has been a fussy feeder, crying around 23hours a day, a terrible sleeper, poor weight gain and generally an irritable and angry baby.Īt first we were told 'colic' and she'll grow out of it but eventually she was referred to a paediatrician and diagnosed with (silent) acid reflux and a milk protein intolerance. It was a natural (although difficult) delivery and she was born weighing just 5lb8s. My pregnancy was difficult and she was induced at 37weeks due to intra-uterine-growth-restriction. 3month old baby with acid reflux and milk protein intoleranceHi
