Does anybody have experience with their LO's having acid reflux? My babygirl is 2 1/2 mos old and she has had tummy issues ever since she came home from the hospital. She was 6 weeks early and was in the NICU for 3 weeks and didnt seem to have a problem at all there. Once she got home and was switched on powdered formula it all startes. Her little belly is so full of gas no matter what i do to help..i mean we have tried gripe water, probiotics, the windis, gas drops, tons of burping... Her Dr finally gave her medicine for acid reflux and switched her formula which has helped a little, & its only been a week of that so hopefully it will help eventually.

my son has issues w his tummy too, I notice when he’s trying to poop he gets really uncomfortable and whines and also when he has gas he’s in pain. i’ve used gripe water and it helps him. have you thought about her seeing a gastroenterologist?

I am thinking that may be the only thing thatll help her cuz girl i feel like ive tried it all. Gripe water hasnt helped her but i havent tried it since she was about 5 wks and now shes 13 so maybe ill try again. She does have ALOT of gas all of the time and it is painful for her as well. She was on neosure formula but i demanded for her to be switched cuz that shit was causing terrible stomach pains even on a probiotice, gas drops, gripe water..i mean really. So shes now on similac alimentum the purple can. Its only been 2 wks and her peds has also perscribed her zantac 2x a day but i am waiting to see a difference...

i’ve been giving my son gripe water since he was about 2-3 weeks old and it helps a little. when I notice he has gas or needs to poop I lay him down and move his legs in a bicycle pedaling motion or just push his knees up and it helps him feel better

My daughter has had horrible acid reflux since week 2. Spitting up sooo much and very uncomfortable always screaming from it. My dr finally gave her meds at week 9. Another dr even told me to try a little rice cereal in her bottle to help weigh down her milk. Unfortunately it makes it worse so we’re stuck with me trying to cut out different things in my diet since I’m breastfeeding.

Thanks hun, im not sure how to go to a msg yet but ill look around and figure it out lol !!! Do they still have it (reflux)?? It seems like she is getting much better being on Zantac and Alimentum formula but I can tell when she makes her facial expressions that she still has it quite often mostly when she is laying down for bed

my oldest grew out of it or it doesn't bother her lol. My youngest is on that formula and took zantac with something else as well. She seems to be way better. She also sleeps on an angle. We use a crib wedge. I highly recommend it.

Breastfeeding is the way to go. Formulas have those side effects

I would try a different brand of probiotics.. the gut has everything to do with reflux. My daughter had awful GERD and the only thing that helped was getting her on great probiotics and switching to a natural goats milk formula.
