It’s been suggested that pacifier or ‘dummy’ use after feeding can help soothe babies with reflux and reduce crying and fussiness, however, there’s not enough research to support this 10. Pacifiers are a personal choice and they’re not something to feel guilty about if it helps your baby. Speak to your health visitor for more advice about the pros and cons of pacifier use. SMA ® Anti-Reflux is a special formula intended for the dietary management of bottle-fed babies when significant reflux (regurgitation) is a problem. It is suitable as the sole source of nutrition up to six months of age, and in conjunction with solid food up to 12 months of age. If the baby’s reflux does not improve within two weeks of starting SMA ® Anti-Reflux, or if the baby fails to thrive, the family doctor should be consulted. Breast milk is best for babies and breastfeeding should continue for as long as possible. SMA ® PRO Follow-on Milk/SMA ® ADVANCED Follow-on Milk/LITTLE STEPS ® Follow-on Milk is for babies over six months, as part of a varied weaning diet. Not intended to replace breastfeeding.It's important to take extra care when making up and storing these products as powdered formula is not sterile and making it up at lower temperatures will not kill any harmful bacteria it may contain. This formula is suitable for babies who are lactose intolerant. This means they cannot absorb lactose, which is a sugar that's naturally in milk and dairy products. Bosscher et al. Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology & Nutrition: April 2000 - Volume 30 - Issue 4 - pp 373-378. Regurgitation is considered entirely normal in babies younger than one year of age 4. However, if your baby frequently regurgitates, their food pipe may become irritated and inflamed from the stomach acid which can cause pain and distress 4. This could mean they have a more serious form of reflux known as gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) which may need treatment 3. If your baby has GORD, your doctor may prescribe certain medications or treatments 4. If your baby is diagnosed as being allergic to cows' milk, a GP will prescribe an appropriate hypoallergenic infant formula with fully hydrolysed (broken down) proteins.
