reflux babies and crib wedges?

DS (8 weeks old) has reflux and for now we let him sleep upright in his rocker or car seat. DH and I really want him to make use of his crib for sleeping and not as an activity center to play with his mobile. I've been reading a lot of mixed reviews on different crib wedges- the main complaint being that their baby seems to slip down the incline.

Is there a particular brand or wedge that any of you mommies recommend? And did it really help your DC with reflux sleep better?

TIA!

Andrew had reflux. He slept in his bouncer for almost 3 months. Then I used the incline to sleep and then when he outgrew that we bought the crib wedge that goes under the sheet.

my dd slept in my son's old infant car seat for 6 months. then into a porta-crib. the ENT we have been seeing suggested bed lifts to prop her head up higher since we can't get a wedge that fits the postra-crib. it works fine. she only slides down when she is awake and playing in the crib. otherwise she stays put.
