BLW and reflux.

lillmoo · Apr 7th, 2012, 07:29 AM

I really don't think BLW is for us, he's brilliant with toast, breadsticks, the organix carrot sicks and stuff, but as soon as we try a veggie, he gags and projectile vomits everywhere!!! It seems as if blw is only going to work for us if i give him food that dissolves fast, and i can't feed him on these things alone! So i'm giving puree's and finger foods, is it really that bad? I know some people are against puree's but what can i do apart from see my little boy gaggin, and projectile vommiting every where to the extent that it's most of his milk feed, and needs to be put in the bath fully clothed!!! help!!!!

We are doing purees as LO needs to keep her weight gain up so I need to know she is taking food. I will be offering finger foods too now she is established on 2 meals a day. There is nothing bad about whichever method you choose. We had reflux problems from 6 weeks although she is much better now. I will be avoiding foods that are acidic for a while eg tomato, some fruits etc. Good luck!
