Reflux meds ?

How often were your DC's meds adjusted due to growth?  DS has been screaming alot this weekend and his meds were last adjusted when he was about 6lbs.  Now I think he is closer to 12lbs.

    Oh I bet he needs adjusted.

    For a while there we had to up Robbie's meds EVERY WEEK. He was growing like a weed then (before he quit eating *sigh*) and he'd outgrow the dose quickly. (Of course, we found out later he had a tummy issue going on that I"m sure didn't help.) but my point is that if he's double his weight.. I'm sure he needs a med adjustment.

    DS took Prevacid and it was only adjusted once - from 1/4 tablet to 1/2 tablet.

    Same here, this happened very early on.  Then we added Zantac which really didn't do anything for us.
