Mom's with GERD babies! HELP!
What did your babies act like and what we're their symptoms? I think my baby girl (3 months on Oct. 11) has GERD and I've tried just about everything to comfort her, she's been like this since about 5 weeks old and I thought she was just a difficult baby until someone told me they thought she might have severe reflux.
Her symptoms:
-Constantly crying
-Pulling away from bottle & breast
-Spit up (at least 12 times a day on a good day)
-frequent hiccups
-vomiting
-thrashing from side to side when you put a bottle in her mouth but screams from hunger
-eats small amounts several times a day
-wet nasty burps
We've tried:
-keeping her upright for 30 min after a feed
-wedges in beds
-staying off of being flat on her back
-switching formulas
-no dairy diet
-burping every 2 ounces
I scheduled her a doctor's appointment on the 4th but is there anything else I can do for her until then? It seems like they only time she's not crying is when she's sleeping :(
