bailey, your a reflux guru arent you?
Is it reflux if they do not throw up every bottle? Not medical advise, am waiting on referral back to paediatrician, just wondering what experiences are

oh I'd like to know this too and does it always start at birth or can it start later? (pondering Eds sudden random chucking up thats now been going on for almost 2 weeks

Dylans only started at 4 and 1/2 weeks, so fairly sure it doesnt have to start at birth, but I think its strange that he can keep the odd bottle down and then chuk the rest of them !

I would have thought that it would just be creamier if you used c-cream

Coconut cream is very similar to coconut milk but contains less water. The difference is mainly consistency. It has a thicker, more paste-like consistency, while coconut milk is generally a liquid. Coconut cream is used as an ingredient in cooking, having a mild non-sweet taste.
Coconut cream can be made by simmering 1 part shredded coconut with one part water or milk until frothy,I][URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed"]citation needed[/URL][/I then straining the mixture through a cheesecloth, squeezing out as much liquid as possible; this is coconut milk. The coconut milk is refrigerated and allowed to set. Coconut cream is the thick non-liquid part that separates and rises to the top of the coconut milk.

seth didnt have reflux from birth, it started when he was about 6 weeks old when he started taking more at each feed.

I seemed to have inadvertantly booked a holiday for next June, how could that have possibly happened?

hmm i might have to try it with the cream, it might have a stronger coconut taste to it, i'm sure thats what it was missing! i couldnt taste it properly though cos i burned my tongue testing it :doh:
