Mama’s with reflux babies

My boy has always had silent reflux where he’s never really brought any milk back up but the past few weeks he’s started to bring up alot of his milk up… I’m just wondering how you feed your reflux babies? Also, just wondering if your baby has reflux, do they have cmpa? (I went down the whole route of cmpa but it was horrific and we tried aptamil pepti 1 but I put him back on hipp organic as he was much better on this) I know it says feed reflux babies smaller more frequent feedings, but is this every hour or? He usually has 5/6 oz every 3/4 hours and can’t keep it down anymore for some reason

I can’t really comment on the formula side as I’m breastfeeding but my little one’s silent reflux got so much better when I eliminated dairy so treating it like he has cmpa. I went to the doctors and they seemed to think that he shouldnt be treated for reflux as he wasn’t bringing anything up and gaining weight. He has bouts of bringing up large amounts though just not consistently.

We’ve been down this route but LO does have CMPA. The silent reflux turned into being sick around 4 months old but she still chokes occasionally on her reflux. Did you only try one prescription formula? We’ve been on two because one caused her to be sick every bottle. Also starting solids seems to have helped.

@Kristina yeah I only tried the aptamil pepti and he was absolutely horrendous within having the first bottle and the next day I changed him back to hipp and he was much calmer again. I know I probably should have went back and asked for a different one but I felt so anxious and hated seeing him screaming like that 😩
