6 week old possible acid reflux

I have a 6 week old daughter who has in the last week started vomiting (spitting up) extremely bad. Today she had blood in her spit-up a few times in a row.

I'm a new Gerd Mom

My 6 moth old daughter was diagnosed with gerd at 6 weeks old. It is horrible. I'm so stressed out and I don't have a babysitter. I'm depressed.

I have a 6 week old son who was diagnosed with silent reflux...

He doesn't spit up much, although occasionally, but he gets a sour look on his face and will scream at the drop of a hat as the acid comes up. We started him on axid and while it seemed to improve the symptoms, he was still experiencing discomfort. We went back to the doctor and we are starting him on prevacid this evening. Anyone with any... Read more Chevron
