Hi,

Just got back from the pedi, and she upped Lily’s dose to 15 mg in the
morning, and 15 mg in the evening. I know Marci kids suggested 3 times
a day, but that makes it almost impossible to give it to her on an
empty stomach mid-day. We’ll try it but was wondering if anyone did
something similar with their LO? Thanks!

Some have done twice, some three times a day. It is hard, which is probably why they suggest zegerid or bufferbabies (don’t have to time around meals). You can always try twice daily and if that doesn’t work, then try the three times daily. Do your reasonable best with the timing of meals, and if you still don’t see an improvement, then maybe you can try with bufferbabies. We did three times daily, but we were using prevacid in caracream (the old bufferbabies). Good luck. 30mg often does the trick for a lot of little ones.

We always did 2x/day and once we got on 15mg/2x day things were great for us. I gave the first dose first thing in the morning usually between 6:30-7am and then the 2nd dose was almost always at 5pm with a feeding/meal at 5:30pm… we did this pretty much from 12wks old until 16 months! And it worked for us.
