Giving Infant a Solutab

Hello! I have a 2 part question. 1) My 5 week old has been diagnosed with GERD. She was put on Zantac which didn't work and then switched to Prevacet. The Prevacet is a solutab (tablet that dissolves into granules). I was told to dissolve the tablet in a very small amout of water and then give her the pill with a syringe dropper. My problem is that the medicine is hard to dispense that way and most of it ends up running down her chin or stuck in the dropper. Have any other mothers had to give their infant a solutab and what method...

Acid Reflux in Infant

Hello everyone. I am writing to get as much feed back on acid reflux in infants as I can. My daughter started spitting up when she was 2 weeks old i was breastfeeding her and she was extremely uncomfortable. She would arch her back when feeding and then after words she would spit up and chock like 2 hrs after feeding her. The spit up would come out her nose, and she could never settle. After talking with her ped we first tried sleeping her up right, hold her on my shoulder for 30 min after feeding and burping often this did not work. Then...

Frequent Bowel Movements

I have an 8 month old baby girl who has had frequent, non-diarrhea bowel movements for a little over a week. She is breast fed and started solids approx 2 months ago. It seems completely unrelated to the start of a new food, I have not changed my diet either. She is having 5-6 a day. I talked to pedi about it and she isn't concerned unless watery. She is getting intermittently red now despite diligent diaper changes with Aquaphor. Any suggestions or feedback? Thanks!

Need Advice on Baby with Lots of Gas

My 3 month old daughter seems to be having a large amount of gas and gas pains, especially at night. I think she might sleep through the night if it weren't for the gas pains waking her up. She'll wake up and I'll get her out of her crib and she'll let out a string of loud "toots." She really doesn't seem interested in eating so I try to rock her back to sleep. She's on Enfamil AR for her Acid Reflux and we give her a steady stream of Mylecon, but it's not helping. Does anyone have any other gas remedies that has worked for them?

4 1/2 Month Old Has Been Constipated Since Birth, Tried Just About Everything!

My son has had trouble w/ bowel movements since birth. I've been supplementing with formula since his first week (since my milk never fully came in). On his pediatrician's advice, we've tried milk-based formula, soy, apple juice, pear juice, milk of magnesium, nothing seems to help! Since we changed to soy last week, (again, on the Ped's advice) he's going more frequently, but his BM's are more painful now and even causing a little bleeding. He did really well on Good Start Natural Cultures for a while, then he started getting really...

Newborn Spitting up Problems

I have a 3 month old son who is still spitting up A LOT! We have tried all of the formulas for infants who spit up and nothing seems to be working. He is also very fussy between feedings. We have checked with his pediatrician and she thinks it is probably just acid reflux. Has anyone else been through this and have suggestions? I'm getting desperate.
