Which formula for reflux? 

 
  • Take bubba girl to the doc's they may prescribe you something better than on the shelf formula. You may get it cheaper as some formulas are on that centerlink card (card remember what it's card but it's yellow and purple xD)
  • My sil used nan ha with the karricare thickener for thier daughter
  • My son had severe reflux. No formula worked he projectiled everywhere. He still vomits at almost 10 month, not as bad though. His paediatrition said nothing can do about the vomiting but needed to help sooth the acid/burning part of the reflux which was hurting him so she gave me zantac. he hated taking it and just caused him distress so we didn't bother with it and he eventually became better with the burning which has now completely gone. They say they should grow out of it 6-12 months (the vomiting) he is getting looked at again in 2 months as if still vomiting could be allergy related. He was also put on solids at 3 months which helped with the acid/burning to go and setlled the vomiting so that he wasn't actually projectiling it.
  • Nan HA Gold is highly recommended by lots of mumma's, and a little thickener if bubs still brings it up. Otherwise I've heard a lot people recommend the Belamy's organic formula, or goats milk formula. 
  • My friend said novalac is working wonders
  • Novelac Reflux Formula. It is fantastic. You have to go to chemists to get it, but was fantastic for my daughters reflux. She was a different child!
  • Novalac reflux worked wonders for my 11 month old DD
  • I was advised me to put my 3 mth old daughter on Karicare Aptimal AR as she was vomiting up every breast feed, and bottle feed (i stopped BF her at 7 wks and put her on Karicare Aptimal gold). She was even vomiting in between feeds. The consultant advised me to give her plenty of water in between her feeds, and even pop a bit of gripe water into the water ( i put 2-3mls in 100mls water), and she has not been constipated once, and she now only perks a tiny wee bit. Nothing like she was. It's so wonderful. If your babies reflux is severe, than maybe something like Gaviscon Infant, or Losec (i think thats what its called can't remember!) would help.
  • Novalac anti reflux worked for us combined with 1ml twice a day of zantac . the formula you can get from the chemist but the zantac you would.need a script from the gp. hopefully the formula works for u on its own and there won't be and need for added meds . good luck
  • Is she is pain with the reflux, or just vomiting alot? If she is in pain i would suggest going to the doctor and talk to them about putting her on mylanta (or something stronger if that doesn't work). If it is just a lot of vomiting then there isn't all that much you can do, except invest in a lot of cloth nappies to catch the spills
  • My DD suffered with reflux she is now on Nan Ha Gold 1 with Karicare thickener and is a totally different bub she doesn't vomit any more is alot happier and is so much more content... They were instructions from a pediatrician too :) happy baby = happy mum... Good luck :)
  • Im using novalac ac reflux 4 my 3mbth old :) u only get at chemists but its great gd luk.
  • Reflux: My youngest had terrible reflux from the get go. We tried different formulas with no success. In the end, a trip to the doctors and some different meds later, the only thing that worked was 1ml of Zantac mixed in with her formula (regular s26). Also elevating her after every feed and elevating her cot slightly so she wasn't laying flat. I'd definitely speak to a doctor about it.
