Wow am I grateful to see this post! My son is almost 9 months and I just can't see, to get him 'right!' He has been on 3 different brand formulas and they said he had reflux so told me to use gaviscon, that did nothing so they added ranitidine and domperidone for his sickness, still nothing so then Nutramigen AA. Things improved for a while but still after each bottle he would cough this awful dry, hacking cough that sounds so painful and then be sick some clear bile that I assume is like stomach acid?
So finally I am referred to an allergy specialist who says he suspects its a corn and wheat allergy. So he has now tried rice milk which he was ok on for a few weeks, and his nasal congestion and eczema cleared but the cough and small sickness remains, eventually he refused to drink the rice milk making the connection that it was making him sick and the sickness stepped up a level to full on throwing up the whole bottle after a feed.
So then we tried oat milk which he refused, coccnut milk which instantly made him throw up the whole bottle and currently we are on almond milk which is currently ok, but still doing the slight sickness after a bottle, about 20-30 mins after.
I'm weaning him and avoiding anything with wheat or corn but tonight I did chicken, parsnip, carrot and sweet potato and boiled it in water, blended it for him and all the time he was eating he was still doing his awful hacking cough?
I just feel like I'm missing something but I don't know what!!
