    I hope it's all working for you now, I also hope you guys are home!

    Both my boys had reflux, but it was far from silent... DS1 was about 14 months before he grew out of it, DS2 was about 4-5 months.

    And yes, corrected age is from when he would have been born. So if due date was yesterday he'd be one day corrected age (also known as adjusted age).

    I found that it took a couple of weeks for the meds to take effect with my DD. I avoided caffeine and dairy and that seemed to make a difference also.

    I hope that your little one gets better soon!

    My little girl has been on ranitidine for quite a number of weeks now. She was born at 34 weeks and required major abdominal surgery with has resulted in her having quite bad reflux. She's now at 40 weeks corrected age.

    She used to vomit alot before being put on ranitidine. It took a few days to work, but now she rarely vomits. She still gets reflux, she screws her little face up and swallows a few times.

    Things will get better. And thats a fairly decent dose of radinidine that you're bubby is on.
