My son and I have symptoms at the same time

Hi,

My 4 month old son has had reflux almost since birth. I myself have acid stomach / nausea from time to time. I’ve noticed that he has flareups with his symptoms at the exact same time as I have my symptoms. This has happened time and time again.

I breastfeed. So I think there is a connection. If I can figure out what it is, maybe I can make him feel better.

I’ve tried the elimination diet. I am not eating dairy. I eat meat only rarely. I’ve added back wheat and soy.

I told about this to two pediatricians, but they ignore it. I don’t know exactly why I am having the issue — I am being tested for possible issues right now.

Has anyone ever heard of anything like this? I haven’t been able to find any information. Any ideas welcome.
