Our youngest was formula fed and we used the aptimal anti reflux formula which was a thickened formual, he got on well with that. When he transitioned to cows milk we used carobel to thicken it, it is tastless and he got on just fine with it.xx
We use Carobel (order it from Amazon) and my baby has been fine with it. It has helped massively!
We changed from aptamil to cow and gate and reflux never stopped. Got prescribed carobel and omeprazole but I was so sure it was cmpa but now she’s been on it about 2 months it’s got so much better! Nearly 9 months and time defo helps, it’s just so horrible when it’s constant x
Yes carobel.
I've used it with 2/3 babies
We have to use it and our little one does not like a thickened milk..but what we do is put the thickener the second we’re about to feed him so it’s still runny but he gets thicker in his tummy, So it doesn’t come back up.
Thats the only way he will take it :))
My son was prescribed Carobel at 7 weeks old and now at 12 weeks old is so much better with keeping his feeds down and not dribbling as much.
