Acid Reflux? GERD?

Well...after a long weekend of yuckiness (more not sleeping, more crankiness, more waking up at night, etc.), I decided to call my pediatrician again and ask for more answers! She said she'd see me today thankfully!

Fortunately, Landon had gained 4 oz in three days (a far cry better than the 3 ounces he'd gained in 8 days time). She was pleased with his progress in that department and that kind of ruled out feeding/milk supply questions for me. Then she went on to ask more about his behaviors and came to the "GERD" (Gastroesophogeal Reflux Disorder) or Acid Reflux conclusion. I'm not a huge fan of chemicals-especially ones that I directly put into my child's body...but medicinal treatment for Acid Reflux has been studied and tested heavily in infants and children, so I feel better about it. The doc gave us a scrip for Zantac and we'll try it for a month. If he does have AR then it will help pretty soon and if he doesn't get better, then we'll back up and try again. Here's hoping!
