Acid Reflux

Well....Hope has acid reflux. She has been getting worse everyday. Poor little thing. We called the doctor yesterday and they called in a prescription of Zantac for her. We picked it up today and gave her her first dose around 2pm. Then she puked up everything she ate....it was a lot!

Dani and Gary are down here visiting and they went through the exact same thing with Makenzie. So they have been giving us pointers. What great timing for them to come down. They told us not to put pressure on her tummy when burping her, when to give her the medicine, to try mylicon before feeding her (which we haven't tried yet) and lots more. So any other pointers would be appreiciated!

We also thought that she had a cold because she had a runny nose and was all congested but...the milk was coming out her nose and got into her sinuses and now it is just trying to get out.

The pharamist told us that we should see results within a day....but definitely by 3 days.

She has been sleeping a lot today....but her last feeding she did not spit up. Please pray that it gets better and for healing! And that she grows out of it quickly! It is scary!
