She never slept. Ever. She needed to be held upright at all times and I can honestly say it was the hardest time of my entire life. I thought I was going to lose my mind between this and adjusting to being a stay at home mom and never seeing adults anymore! I ended up having to cut out dairy, wheat, beans, sugar, and a few other things and it helped so much (I breastfed until she was one)! The prescription medicine didn't help much. All that to say she's almost two now and I'm wanting another baby but I am TERRIFIED. I feel like I cannot go through that again! So glad he's doing better for you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04175138190155454760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898922762803193029.post-10013273479984304142012-07-25T19:12:49.953-05:002012-07-25T19:12:49.953-05:00I am glad to hear Crew is better without medicatio...I am glad to hear Crew is better without medication. However this is not typical. My daughter ( who is currently 9 months old) cried non stop for the first five months of her life because of reflux. Medication does not stop reflux however it assists with future complications reflux causes. Also once this erosion begins it takes 4 months for it to heal. These are some thing my peds did not even know, it wasn't until I took her to a feeding clinic and specialist appointment.Raquelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13206026538517599182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898922762803193029.post-26082915747582440502012-07-23T22:16:18.897-05:002012-07-23T22:16:18.897-05:00Our Daughter had really bad acid reflux, as well. ...Our Daughter had really bad acid reflux, as well. She was our first baby, and I remember wondering if this constant crying and waking every ten minutes day and night was just a normal baby thing. It was a relief to hear that incessant crying is not normal baby behavior, and that the acid reflux would eventually go away. She is fine now at 15 months, thank goodness, but I do remember that very difficult time when she was going through the worst of her acid reflux. Now we are due with number 2 (a boy) and I do have some Mommy fears that he will have acid reflux, too. So glad that Crew is feeling much better- from one acid reflux Mommy to another, I know just how great it feels when that darned acid finally goes away. So happy he's a growing, happy little man!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898922762803193029.post-75847518480320323632012-07-23T15:05:44.474-05:002012-07-23T15:05:44.474-05:00My twins had reflux really bad too.

It was horrible. I begged the medicine b/c after the turning blue and not breathing I could not sleep. The zantac made things worse for us, so I went with my mommy gut telling me to try cereal. We did and since then we have been much much better.
