DS has silent reflux which we've thus far managed by holding him up after feeds, sleeping him at an angle etc. but the situation with night sleeping has become unsustainable and he's been prescribed Gaviscon today. He is 11 wo, but born at 34 weeks. My GP and pharmacist weren't very forthcoming about the best way to get it into him. Any tips? He took a bottle in the early days under pressure from SCBU nurses but has been EBF for a long time now. I feel very down about the whole thing. Sterilising really stresses me out - presumably I'll need to sterilise kit for mixing it up as well as the syringe/spoon?
