Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Reflux again,belly aches, or something else?

DD was diagnosed with reflux around 1 month and was started on prevacid. Around 3 months we started to wean her off with permission from the pedi and she had been doing great. Well, a couple days ago she started wiggling around while feeding but wasn't crying so I didn't think the reflux was back. Now she wakes up every 1.5 hours at night crying as if she is uncomfortable and pulling her legs up to her chest. Should I try giving her gripe water or gas drops when she does this or could it be signs of reflux coming back.

Sorry that was long and confusing! TIA!

Re: Reflux again,belly aches, or something else?

  • Sounds like reflux again. Maybe start the meds again and see if it stops. DS reflux peaked at around 3 months.

  • it could be reflux again.  our DD got much better so we told our ped we stopped the Zantac.  she said, "don't be surprised if it comes back.  keep your Rx just in case." 
  • At 3 mos it is unlikely that she's outgrown the reflux if it was so bad that she needed prevacid.  I would put her back on the meds and see if that helps.  Our LO has gotten worse as he's gotten older...
