DS saw osteo a week or so back who said he was tight from top of his tummy down to his hip on right side. Showed me how to do gentle stretches and said come back in 3 weeks. Regular MCHN said 'yep, that s what babies do'. fill in mchn (who saw DS when he ws unsettled) said 'he is definitely telling us something, looks like reflux see a dr. you can try 1ml mylanta to see if it helps'. Dr said 'i just read a paper sayng reflux is diagnosed too much these days'. and then described how sphincter not fully developed and so milk and acid comes back up (mmm, isn't that reflux?)
i don't necessarily want to medicate, i like the virgin gut theory, but i also don't want him in pain unneccesarily or causing long term problems by not.
EJ- i am checking our ABA library for 'colic solved' but if it' not available, i woud love to borrow your copy if possible.
