Opinions- reflux or change formula?

My DD pulls her legs up a lot and screams and cries in pain. It is mostly at night when this happens. Maybe because the only time she is laid flat all day? Dr gave us a few options- we can try similac sensitive or alimentium. Or try using 1/4t of maylox or mylanta twice a day for reflux. It's hard because we aren't sure what's causing it yet. What avenue would you try first?

Re: Opinions- reflux or change formula?

  • Could you try propping her up when she sleeps? We put a rolled up towel/blanket under one end of the mattress so little man can sleep at a small incline. I always opted for formula changes rather than medicine, first. I know some parents who use Alimentum with their babies and have great results, but I couldn't stand the smell. Pregnancy made my nose extra sensitive haha.
