We finally after a week have answers. It feels great. Ben has severe GERD. This is also known as acid reflux. So when the food comes back up in burns like no other and he is in pain. This then causes him to stop breathing . So after the two 24 hours tests that we did the past 24 hours we finally have answers.He will be on .8 ml of zantac twice a day as well as have a heart monitor. We are trying this all tonight in hopes we can hopefully go home Saturday or Sunday!

It feels good to have answers! Thanks again!

Oh my goodness! The most dramatic case of reflux in a baby, ever! When he is a teenager you'll have to ground him for this scare. ;-)
