Formula for 'sicky/spitty' baby

[Abiyork]

Hi all,

Our daughter is nearly 5 months old and been on formula for just the past 3 weeks after BF from birth. She healthy, eats and sleeps well its just this little habit.

She has always been a bit of a sicky baby with breast and bottle, we often have to change her tops 3 times a day. It's not large amounts, just bits here and there which with her teething dribble soon mount up.

Is there a formula out there which will best suit her? Maybe a tad thicker so its less likely to be spat up.

Thanks in advance.

might want to add some rice cereal to it...or have you spoken to her dr as it could be reflux. My son was really bad refluxing and he actually spit up all over a man's jacket at church...after that we got medS LOL

Are you in the UK? Cow and Gate anti reflux has worked wonders with my LO. She suffers from terrible reflux and was sick constantly, i felt like i needed to keep a bib on her at all times! She used to throw up everywhere but now ive put her on this milk she is hardly sick at all! Hasn't helped with the pain from reflux but deffo helped with the sickness x

Oh and i meant to add, they only sell it in Boots for some reason, so its a bit annoying to get as you cant just pop to the supermarket!

Many thanks everyone, strange you mention the cow&gate as I saw that today whilst searching the Internet. Gonna give that a go, she has no pain at all from the spit ups so if it can stop it then she'll be dry as well as happy!

Quick update.

She's been on the cow & gate anti reflux for a couple of days now and what a transformation. No sick, no spit up, still burping well and she is more full and content.

She can finally be put in a nice outfit without a bib!
