Baby GERD

Ni Ni got diagnosed with GERD (gastroesphogeal reflux disease) on Thursday. He has all the classic symptoms of it. We started the medicine on Friday, but really haven't seen any improvement. I also purchased a homeopathic remedy called colicalm which I am supposed to receive today. I'm hoping that maybe this will help. He seems to be okay during the day for the most part, except during feeding time is when we see the most problems. Its been pretty frustrating as parents to watch your child refuse food. If the homeopathic tonic doesn't work than maybe something else is wrong? We just don't know.

Sorry to hear the news babe! I'm sure this isn't very easy for mommy and daddy to deal with :( Hopefully the medicine will start to kick in or the homeopathic stuff will work. I'm sure things will work out just fine...think happy thoughts and keep your head up :) I'll keep you guys in my prayers!

Too bad he's not old enough for tums! We all know mommy never leaves the house without them ;)
