Hey "EJ"!!!
Alexandras doing much better though she is on a higher than normal dose (daily) of the Losec - 15mg - all at once. If she misses it - woooahhh we know about it!!!
On the losec she's a normal baby - and sleeping and feeding much better. Occaisionally waking up due to reflux - so things are not perfect but very much managable.
Zantac (I was told) works for a limited time before the babies develop a tolerance for it. so... if you find her symptoms getting worse, try the losec?
As for me - hey,, im doing heaps better now she can be settled and I dont feel like a loser! Im hoping to wean her off the losec ASAP. Tried this week, not happening! She was awful for 2 days! Within hours after increasing the dose back to 15mg - peace and a smiling baby again.
I think I'll try weaning again at 3 months - as (from what Ive been told) babies tend to grow out of the reflux around 3 or 6 or 9 or then 12 months generally.
Reflux IS awful - im sure going to tell ALL my pregnant girlfriends what to look out for because its so exhausting and depressing if you are living in the dark like we were, huh!!
