Hi! My 10mo old is waking up multiple times a night, sometimes taking 2-3 hours to be put back down, and I'm at the point of wondering if it's reflux or silent reflux even though there aren't the typical or obvious signs.

Some signs are:

Occasional burping/swallowing

Waking up at night

Pushing his feet while we try to put him to bed constantly

Unable to settle

Things that aren't really happening:

Arching his back

Crying when set on his back or during the day, he's not crying when on his back

Random things:

We've been putting ther-biotic in his bottles, and that completely stopped his spitting up. If he wasn't taking that, he would be spitting up every night.

He is a combo of breastfed and bottle-fed with Kendamil infant goat. I'm dairy-free. We just got a blood test for him to test for allergies but haven't gotten the results back.

Did anyone else have a baby without obvious reflux signs and start reflux meds and it helped? I would hate to do medicine if that isn't the issue.

(BTW, we've talked to his pediatrician about this and she doesn't know either. She prescribed meds if we want to try it, and also suggested a sleep study)
