Reflux?
Do any of you have babies with reflux? How’d you find out? I feel terrible for letting my baby cry the last few weeks while I held her just to realize today that she probably has acid reflux and sitting her upright + gas drops would’ve helped. Some of her symptoms are below. Any insight is appreciated. I feel like such a shitty mom right now for not realizing this sooner.
1) increased vomiting over the last two to three weeks (she’s five and a half weeks), usually within 15 minutes of eating
2) coughing more than she did the first week or so, usually followed by or following a cry
3) choking during BF about once a day, sometimes more
4) frequent crying, usually within 30 mins of feeding or before we lay her down for a nap/ bedtime (which makes me so upset because we’d just try to soothe her with our voices or rocking which obviously wasn’t helping)
5) constant swallowing following what sounds like her vomiting, as if she’s swallowing her vomit
6) crying as she brings her knees to her chest
