I don’t understand!! Just when I am SURE that he must have reflux ( we are going to dr tomorrow anyway ) he will be fine!
My mom spent the night last night and totally took over so I could get some sleep. Now I have to admit that over night hasn’t been AS bad. He will eat and fall back asleep, after some rocking etc. Then it seems as the days progress he is more and more fitful, screaming, choking, etc until almost 12-2 at night, then back to being clamer.
She said he did fine last night and then woke up at 7 fell asleep at 9 and went back to sleep until noon. Fell asleep at 1 and now it is 4 and he is up. What gives? I have been dealing with screaming and eating every 2 hours and awake every 3o mins….
We have been doing the rice thing in every bottle now- is it just now starting to really help? Or is it just a fluke? I don’t want him to be in pain, but in a way I wish he would just follow some pattern so I would stop second guessing myself!
Do other reflux babies have a kind of “better” time? My first DS it was 24/7 so I guess this is really throwing me for a loop…

Reflux is a rollercoaster and I used to have good days with mine in which I though I must have been nuts or have been imagining things because they seemed perfectly fine.
However, once you find the right treament plan (meds, formula, thickening or not, etc.) the pain of reflux should be controlled and so there should be more good days than bad days. Hopefully the cereal is helping him and he’s going to be happier overall. Once Myles was properly medicated he was pretty much pain free and comfortable. His bad days were days in which he puked more than other days, but that’s not that is fixed by reflux meds.
Is he on any meds? Sorry, I can’t remember.
If he’s happy, eating and sleeping well, and doesn’t seem to be in any pain, I’d stick with what’s working.
