11 month with reflux- feeding issues. pls help!
HELLO,
i have twins 11month old,one boy and a girl,they were born 6weeks premature.up till 3 month of age both were in good shape,taking formula every three hours with out any problem.after 3 month of age my son refused to take bottle,since then he is on spoon feeding,for the last 3 months he is throwing up like crazy,may be 7-8 times a day,some time one table spoon and some time half cup full vomiting,some days are better than others.on the top of that we are feeding him forcefully,[his weight gain is borderline,not losing weight so far]he does not want to take feed,does not eat any solids,was eating solids when 5 month old but now he is not even touching his lips with food,if i try to put something in his mouth he will gag and eventually vomits.sometime i feel he has problem with swallowing,i took him to GI,he put him on zantac,did work only for 4 days,in the sense that his vomiting was little less ,after that my GI put him on prilosec,it did not work at all.and my son developed oral thrush as a side effect. now i dont want to take him to GI anymore,i put him on colic calm gripe water and nat phos 6x (2 tablets 3 timesday) for 6 weeks,not much difference,i want to try correct homeopathy regimen for reflux,can you please help me in this regard....[major concern 11 month old does not eat solids at all]
