We’re using cereal but much under the recommended amount due to it causing constipation. She also has severe reflux

how much do you use? i dont want to constipate her, we’ve had issues with that since she was born

We use the Gerber organic oatmeal and it has done amazing! We have been doing it for 3 months now and it has helped drastically

I would start small 1tsp at a time to see how she does. My son uses 1 formula scoop in a 4oz bottle. But just see what amount helps her reflux the most.

we see a gi specialist and she’s on the elecare formula and she’s still spitting up so i’m trying everything i can

I did famotidine twice a day and tsp rice cereal during the day mixed with breastmilk and formula x 3wks. It's helped tremendously shes 5 mths now. I started at 2mths

i do famotidine at night 0.75 ml
