Sorry, but yet another one of these threads.....

Took Oliver to the doctor today and they finally offered me help!!
He is sick ALL the time - when is lying down, sitting up, when we pick him up, change his nappy, even in his sleep. This morning, he was sleeping upright and it was literally just flowing out of his mouth.
It was really upsetting me, even though I knew he would grow out of it in time. So this morning, I totally lost the plot, phoned the surgery and demanded an appointment (not that I needed to demand, they are always so good!!!).
So saw doc today, she agreed that it was a lax oesophegus, but then offered us some help!!! She has written him up for gaviscon, to help the regurgitation. I am sooooooooo pleased!
It isn't reflux, as some of your LO's has - there is no pain, wind etc - it just falls out, so he isn't distressed at all. I am the only one that is distressed by it all!!
So thats my news. A happy bunny.

Poor thing, hope the gaviscon works.

And if hes being sick a lot, now prob isnt the best time to drop that night feed, he will need the extra food

True!!!
Well, he took the first dose no problems. Didn't think he'd take it via the bottle, but he loved it!

There is an improvement already. He's obviously not completely better, but his sickness has reduced. It is also a lot thicker, so when he is sick , there is a lot less. He seems a lot happier too. And so am I!!!
