Megan detailed the terrifying ordeal with her fans on social media on Friday afternoon.

The reality star posted a photo of Landon in a cot in hospital after spending an night in A&E before moving to a baby ward.

Megan wrote: “One thing I’m learning about being a mum, always trust your gut.

“I was told to stop Landon’s Omeprazole by his pediatrician. This made me feel really uncomfortable and I begged to get him on it in the first place due to him having terrible reflux for six weeks.

“He finally has got himself to a good place after being on a baby Omep for four months.

“I begged to get more but was told he needs to stop now.

“Because I was told to stop when I really didn’t want to, I’m now sitting on a baby ward after being in A&E all night because Landon has got gradually worse throwing up so much, it was scary.

“Screaming in pain and retching till his face turned red and had now become dehydrated from all the vomiting.”

The frightened mum continued: “The pediatrician at the hospital I’m in now is very confused at why he was told to stop taking it and should be on it for at least six months.

“After last night he is being put straight back on it and has just had his first dose.

“He was kept in overnight to be monitored and to have fluids put back into his body.”

The social media star said her five-month-old baby was now on the road to recovery after a scary 24 hours.

She went on to say: “Thankfully Landon’s back to his happy self again.

“He even woke up with a smile.

“But we’re now back on the Omeprazole journey. Thank you to all the nurses and doctors that looked after Landon on the Dolphin Ward at Princes Alexlndra Hospital.

“I really appreciate everything you have done for me and Landon.”

She then shared a further update along with a picture of her son attached to a cannula – which is a small plastic tube that is inserted into a vein to deliver fluids, blood, or medication.

Megan wrote: “His teeny baby hand. He was so stressed and confused having this cannula put in.

“I’m so upset his reflux has got this bad.

“Moving forward I won’t be taking no for an answer. You as a mum knows best.

“He’s having a few days for his tummy to settle with the Omep and then they told me to wean him slowly again alongside the omperazole.

“Honestly reflux is awful for our tiny babies.

“I just want to make sure he doesn’t have to go through that again.”

In October, Megan shared video footage of her new arrival in an Instagram video.

She announced his name and revealed that he was born on October 7 at 8.33am, weighing 9lbs 2oz.

The adorable home movie taken after the birth showed both Megan and Oliver cuddling their bundle of joy.

The tot was also seen rubbing his face as he slept and enjoyed a feed.

Megan has been honest with every up and down as a new parent, including getting painful mastitis – a condition where milk ducts get blocked in the breasts – and wanting to tone up her tummy after giving birth.

She’s also been juggling a bigger workload while her footballer fiancé Oliver is away working.

Now complete with a mum bob hairdo, Megan has said that she is refusing to respond to negativity over her baby boy, after trolls came after her for trying to sleep train Landon to sleep by himself.
