Baby Tip #11: Acid Reflux

October 10, 2009

Last night, Senia was crying every time we laid her down and fine when we would hold her upright.  We tried everything to solve the issue including changing her clothes, diaper, taking her temperature, placing her in the bed (as opposed to the crib) and came to the conclusion that nothing external was causing the problem.

So this morning we finally called the doc who told us that more than likely it was more than likely acid reflux.  She said that since this was the first time, it’s not yet a chronic issue (cross our fingers), but something we need to be careful about.  The solution, keep her upright after feedings and for as long as she is uncomfortable on her back.  Placing a few pillows strategially to keep her sleeping on an angle solved the issue and she is once again, sleeping like a baby.

For more info on acid reflux, when it comes to babies, click here for an overview and click here for more detail (ignore that the site is also promoting a product, the solutions are well written.)

That’s Me!
