Question for Jill (GA) Aidan’s Mom

[Anonymous]

Jill-

My little one is the same age as Aidan. I just wanted to know a couple of things if you have time.

I noticed that you said that Aidan’s reflux is going great! Good news. Why are you still going to keep him on 30mg until age 1? My doctor wants us to go from 22.5 to 15mg next week and see how he does for a couple of weeks and then down to 7.5mg and then to none. Did your doctor want you to keep him on the 30mg?

Also, I noticed that you said Aidan was on table foods now. Is he off of baby food? Marshall loves table foods but I still give him baby food because I do not know what to give him. He is starting not to want it anymore. This is what we have tried. Will you also let me know what Aidan eats. Also how are you given him fruit. Is it the gerber graduates? I would love some more ideas! Thank you.

Cheese toast, cherrios, gerber stars, crackers, small sweet peas, pieces of ham and chicken, graham crakers, banannas.

Hey, well, we’re still doing the prevacid b/c I can still hear him reflux, so I guess instead of declaring it gone I should say “in the process of going away” Hes not in any sort of pain anymore and can eat almost anything, but the doc wants to do it as a just in case thing, and because he’s big (24 lbs) she thinks it would be best to wait until about 11 months to decrease it, then wean him at 12 months (lord knows how chubby he’ll be by then!!! Anyway, he eats the gerber fruit and veggies, the graduates (I guess) in the baby food jars, and anything else solid but softish (cheese squares if you leave them out and let them be at room temp get soft enough for him to eat them (cut up of course) I gave him the statge 2 strawberries and there was no reaction (er strawberries and apples) so he eats fresh raspberries that I give him small pieces of, I use canned pears sometimes, they’re pretty soft, and fresh avacado. a lot of the time I put things that are too hard for him to chew in the baby safe teether, plums, apples, grapes, etc. That’s the main way we do fruit, in the teether. It’s easy but SOOOOO messy!!!!! He’s stil lwokri ng on chewing so I get very nervous about giving him t hings that aren’t pretty soft!! (and has no teeth), I will post more later, have to get the older one from the bus stop!!!
