I know this isn’t a rave thread but some of these comments are wayyyyy harsh! She’s a FTM if her baby was really unsettled and she’s queried it with a GP health visitor and they’ve said it’s silent reflux then she’s surely just going to assume their diagnosis is correct and go along with what they recommend? Seems to me docs are v.quick to diagnose reflux and offer gaviscon and as a mum you just want to try anything to stop your baby being upset.
My baby was the most grizzly little ball of fury for the first 4-6months and we tried so many things and there was always debate as to whether it really was reflux or colic or just general gastrointestinal discomfort, but it’s so hard to diagnose with tiny babies so they just shove gaviscon at you in the hopes it will help.
I find it so shocking that any mum who’s dealt with the struggles of a refluxy newborn could be so nasty. Yeah there’s a lot of questionable things elle does but seriously give the woman some credit for trying to breastfeed amoungst these issues, it’s not like she has her own mum Around to support her!
