Formula help reflux?

Question

Hi! 
My baby girl has reflux and is sick so much! She is EBF but I’m wondering if giving her a couple of bottles of formula a day would help?! Formula seems thicker than breastmilk! 
If anyone has any tips then they’d be appreciated!!!

Answer

I’d talk to your doctor. I don’t think formula is usually better for reflux. It could be something in your diet (lactose??) in that case, you may need to cut out dairy.

Answer

I read that formula can actually be worse for reflux

Answer

My baby has been having the same issue since birth. Has had weekly appointments due to her being in so much pain. I decided to stop breastfeeding at 2 weeks she will be 5 weeks and we just switch to hypoallergenic nutramigen formula per her pediatrician

Answer

My first born girl had bad reflux. 
And I had to formula and breastfeed..before I even knew. And switched to just formula at 3-4 months old cause I lost my milk supply. 
But it didn’t matter for her what she ate, didn’t change her vomiting. 
We eventually had to put her on medication to get it manageable.
