Babies: 6 - 9 Months

6 month old screaming after nap

So we just started solids an her reflux has got worse. She just recently started waking up from her afternoon nap screamingafter lunch. She is inconsolable! Every time she burped she would cry more so I'm wondering if Zantac is no longer working? On top of that I've noticed she has only had small hard poops the last few daysway different from breastfed poop. I had decided to take her to the doctor bc she was still so upset after an hr, then I came back in the room after calling and she had taken a big poop! So her waking up crying from only 1 daytime nap each day for a few days was constipation? What do u do for constipation for a 6 month old who seems to have reflux issues with every solid we try? Still need a change in reflux meds maybe?

Re: 6 month old screaming after nap

  • not sure with the reflux and if this would make it worse or not but when little man is having a hard time going then i give him an ounce of prune and apple juice.  also i have noticed that blueberries and green beans seem to help too.

    I am so sorry for what she is going through. hope you find answers soon

  • Like pp We do prune juice and blueberries. A little goes a long way with my little one. She has very bad reflex as well. If she call roll on her own, putting her to nap on her tummy is said to help. I personally stay away from any sleep positionors Before have dd I did home visit with families and had a baby on my case load die from using one. Some drs suggest thickening milk with rice. I would talk to your dr first before trying. Rice really can constipate as well for my dd. 
  • DS screams if he wakes up too early just means hes still tired.
