Our Story - Willow
March 2007, Basingstoke, England “It can’t be morning; we’ve only just gone to bed!” Does this sound familiar? Maybe if you are a parent with a new baby. In our case, we were parents for the third time, but this time our 6 week old daughter Willow, was diagnosed with G ...
Corrinne's Story
My son Archie (now 2.5) was diagnosed with silent reflux at 10 weeks. I spent 10 gruelling weeks trying to breastfeed him for him only to arch his back at every feed and scream with pain. He gained weight but that was because he fed little and often, every 1-2 hours. Laying him on his back cause ...
Jayden's Story
When Jayden was born in March 2010, I knew instantly that something wasn’t quite right. Those first couple of feeds soon projected from his tiny mouth and all over his new baby grow. Frustrated, I asked the nurse for advice who force fed him and that soon ended up all over her. Nevertheless, the ...
Life on the Reflux Rollercoaster by Beverley Ward
It’s 10pm on a typical night and I’m on the Little Refluxers forum – again. Before my baby Douglas was born, I’d never been on a forum; now the virtual world of reflux mums is sometimes the only place I feel understood. A new message has come in from ‘Angie’, mother to a 7 week old silent reflu ...
George’s reflux story
George was born in May 2011, four weeks prematurely. I understand that this made him more likely to get reflux, in addition one of his cousins had had unproblematic reflux as a baby. George started to make very strange noises in the night at about 4 weeks, and suddenly stopped settling after a f ...
Freya's reflux journey
I'm mum to a non refluxer 15 year old son Kieran. Decided to try for a baby with my second husband, delighted to fall pregnant very quickly. Delivered a healthy daughter, Freya, weighing a good 10lbs 9oz!. Seemingly well we left hospital after 24 hours. Rapidly discovered all was not right with ...
James' Story
I watch James sleep snuggled up to me on the sofa, holding onto his cuddly ‘Tilly’ dog and study every inch of his face. I am addicted to him, his little laugh, his cheeky smile, and his unconditional love. The silent relaxed atmosphere of the house is a far cry literally from the dark seeming ...
Peter's Story
In September 2007 I gave birth 4 weeks early to non-identical twin boys. Whilst initially both boys seemed to feed well on formula (I had decided I wouldnt try and breast feed twins this time as I had with my eldest son) and were helped by having been born at good weights (both just over 6lb) ou ...

Rob & Suzanne's Story
Rob & Suzanne’s Story I have two gorgeous sons and I wouldn’t change them for the world but life has been fairly traumatic since they arrived. Our eldest son had stomach surgery at 3weeks old – his reflux was so bad the paediatricians thought he had a more serious medical cond ...
Milly's Story
We have a baby girl with reflux (Milly is 6 months). We’ve had a hard time with reflux. Milly’s vomiting has been helped a little with infant gaviscon, but obviously it doesn’t eliminate it. We’re at the weaning on to solids stage now and the vomiting has become really re ...
Jane's Story
I have been reading the stories on your website and thought ours may be of some reassurance to people struggling through this. G was perfectly healthy and happy until he reached 10 weeks old, when he began to pull off the bottle, arching his back and screaming. Within a couple of weeks, it affe ...
Hope's Story
Hope’s first four months were absolute hell due to reflux. The GP and pediatrician kept putting her on different medication – none of which worked. Finally when they could see I was about to break they let me into the secret of SMA Staydown milk. I can’t recommend it enough ...
