Carin - dairy was/is a big one in this house. LIke you, Ryan seemed to be able to handle if I ate things with dairy in it - but not the actual product like milk, cream, cheese, ice cream, yoghurt, etc. As he's gotten older I find i can eat a bit more dairy without bothering him but if I eat too much he spews all over the place. He's on meds though so we don't get the screaming.

He's alright with chocolate and coffe - thank god! But he can't tolerate cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower.

I would say cut out diary, gassy foods and potato. Ryan doesn't mind potato so you can try adding that back in. And try going totally dairy free for awhile and then slowly try eating some foods that have dairy in the ingredients (like cake or something) and see how you go. You might find he's the same and can't tolerate the actually stuff but can handle baked stuff. I wonder if it changes the protein when it's cooked...??

henry had reflux and no one thought to tell me that what i was eating would effect him so the poor wee thing suffered quite badly. I feel really bad now because maybe i could have helped it without putting him on meds. A dummy was a godsend for us. And even now at 17months he is still a very sucky wee thing - sucks his thumb a lot.
Good luck to those of you with reflux babies. It does go away eventually. Henry's pain eased at about 6months and then finally stopped vomiting (spilling) just before he turned one although it did lessen when he started solids. ]]> Wed, 27 Jan 2010 13:40:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=912986&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#912986 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=912817&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#912817 Author: RinTinTin

Bummer, its all the foods that I like, especially chocolate and coffee and brocolli.
Have already cut out onions and brocolli already. It sure narrows down what you can eat!!!
We have brought a dummy so we will give that a go to see if that helps as he does seem to be constantly hungry, though the midwife said that most likely it is him wanting to suck to get rid of the taste etc.

Man where do I start, well cut out all those typical gassy veges, cauli, brocolli, garlic, onions.

Watch out for acid producing foods, tomatoes, potato, capsicum - nightshade family stuff.

Watch out for citrus fruits that can cause acid, oranges, lemons, grapefruit, & their juices.

Oh coffee & Chocolate seems to set them off too, but I'm getting away with one coffee a day so all is not lost

Mum2Mac dairy free is easy if you like cooking & baking. Just switch out any milk with ricemilk or soy (rice tastes nicer) and switch out any butter with oil. I use salad oil as it's less flavoured or rice bran oil but more expensive.

I made a pizza base which usually has butter which you have to rub in & I trialled using oil & it worked just as well.

Cooper has silent reflux. Definitely looking into maybe trying Gaviscon for a start it certainly helps & I wished I'd clicked earlier on in his life.

A dummy is a godsend for him so maybe try one?]]> Tue, 26 Jan 2010 21:47:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=912380&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#912380 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=912356&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#912356 Author: naysgirl

I think my wee man has reflux as well. He doesn't spill too much, although today he was quite bad. But over the last few days he seems to be really uncomfortable. I spoke to my midwife today to see what we could do to help him.
Are there any other known foods that can commonly cause reflux?

Deb- any tips/advice would be much appreciated. I am hoping that things don't get any worse but any advice would be great to make life better for him.]]> Tue, 26 Jan 2010 21:33:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=912356&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#912356 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=911980&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#911980 Author: RinTinTin

OK, this means DP and I are going to have to seriously do some shopping cause there is basically zilch I can eat in tis house that doesn't have some kind of dairy product in it.

Is there somewhere that might list a dairy-free shopping list? Suppose I could just Google it.


Mac seems to have Acid Reflux. He very rarely spills and has never vomited. And it always comes and goes. He can go for days with no issues, then oneday I'll burp him, acid oviously comes up and it all turns to custard from there.]]> Tue, 26 Jan 2010 17:37:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=911980&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#911980 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=911887&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#911887 Author: _Deb_

Hi Carin.

I've gone completely dairy free because of Isabella's reflux. I've noticed a big change in her. Chocolate and primo were the worst for her. Dammit. lol. But i was stupid the other day and had a burger from Wendy's that had cheese on it and well my poor girl has gone back to vomiting and screaming constantly. She had been doing so much better. So i'm feeling very guilty now. I've learned my lesson!

Have a look at this site. www.cryingoverspiltmilk.co.nz. It's a great site about reflux. If you want any advice/info about reflux just let me know. Both of my kiddies had/have it.]]> Tue, 26 Jan 2010 16:45:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=911887&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#911887 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=911785&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#911785 Author: RinTinTin

After my bold comment this morning about Mac not having an episode for 2-3 days, well today we got it!

I THINK its because I had weetbix with milk for breakfst this morning. I'm pretty sure it's dairy products setting him off.
I seem to be able to get away with having Margarine, baking or anything that has dairy in it as an ingredient, but can't seem to get away with the actual product itself like, milk, cheese, cream or butter.

What I want to know is, can anyone pin point what, if anything, sets off their reflux in their babies? And what is it?]]> Tue, 26 Jan 2010 15:34:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=31181&PID=911785&title=reflux-what-sets-it-off#911785
