Reflux we loathe you...

As the days go on our reflux grows increasingly worse. At some point when we weren't watching we crossed to afternoons filled with screaming with only a short break before the bedtime screams began.

The last two days that glorious break seems to have vanished and our start hour getting earlier and earlier.

I am exhausted.

We are no longer able to nap and it takes us a good 2-3 hours to calm down enough to go to bed. Her agony breaks my heart. We have tried so many eating tricks and every upright hold we can come up with to help her belly settle after she eats.

Bouncing rocking cooing or crying right along with her. It makes no difference. I could handle all the spit up or even our new projectile vomit trick...if she was happy. The agony in her eyes when she looks at me is beyond terrible.

Hopefully help is on the way. As every natural trick in the book has failed and we have gotten worse the doctor has given us a prescription. I will be so grateful to see the agony gone and our sweet girl content throughout the day.

  1. OH, I so know this pain, sweetie. Medicine AND the Little Tummies gas drops were the only things that helped N. We battled on until she started solids at 6 months ... then, it went away. Just know this does end. :)

  2. Lydia is on prevacid after first trying zantac. It has done wonders for her. Hope she gets relief soon.
