IBS

Does anyone have a young infant that seems to always pull up and arch their backs in pain a lot? Our 14 month old constantly does this, especially after meal time and never has a good nights sleep; in fact she hasn't slept through the night since this past August! She is always waking up crying and just can't sleep and be still; she is always restless and thrashing around all during the night. She has also had a lot of constipation problems resulting in her being on a daily laxative to help. Just wondering if this could be a sign of Irritable bowel syndrome and if anyone else has gone through this!

    Back arching and sleeping problems can be signs of acid reflux. Has LO ever been treated for reflux?

    have you done an elimination of foods to try to identify triggers?  wheat, dairy, and soy are big ones.

    No she hasn't. When I asked our family doctor she told me it wasn't acid reflux, that it was nothing to worry about. We are seeing a pediatrician in March but I wanted to get some ideas from people so when I see this doctor we can hopefully test for different things :)

    Between the signs of pain and the constipation, I would put my money on a food sensitivity.
