Reflux worse at night??

Thanks for all the input.

– Yes, he sleeps on his tummy. We had to start putting him on his tummy to sleep when he was just about 3 or 4 weeks since he would immediately cry in pain when we tried to put him on his back. (That was before we learned of his MFPI and reflux.) Now, no matter how we put him in the crib, he rolls over onto his tummy automatically.

– Thanks for the reminder to give him Mylanta Cherry Supreme with the Zegerid. I don’t understand why my ped gave him such a low dose after spending a long time reading on the Marci-Kids site himself. But, I’m going to stay at this dosage for a full week before I call the ped and talk about upping it (or just going ahead and doing it for myself). I just started with this ped and I don’t want to alienate him before my second visit.

– Yes, he is on an incline although he often ends up at the bottom of the crib by the time he squirms and wriggles before finally crying.

Best of all, he slept from 10:30 PM – 7:10 AM without waking once last night!!!!! This was the first time since November 16th that he slept through the night!! I actually had a hard time sleeping as my body has gotten so used to being awakened frequently. I hope he repeats this again tonight but even if he doesn’t, at least I know he still can do it when he feels well enough!

Thanks again for everyone’s comments.
