Finally happy and healthy baby!

My daughter who is now 8 suffered from silent reflux/GERD since she was 2 weeks old.
Unfortunately she was miss diagnosed and over looked as a “fussy baby” and was later treated by a specialist.
So when my son was just recently born after 2 weeks I started to see the same symptoms. I knew right away what was happening and how I didn’t want the past to repeat itself.
I first went to the pediatrician when they immediately put him on Pepcid. However as they usually follow textbook GERD guidelines they wanted to wait 14-21 days for both H2 medicines to see how he responded.
I knew after 1 week that he needed a PPI. With seeking guidance on this I found infant acid reflux facebook support page.
Shortly after my first post I was in touch with Kira and then Dr. Prince. I was able to get a script that very night!
Now he is 6 weeks old and doing amazing! I couldn’t of done it without their help, support and medical advice.
Even in my darkest moment they were very patient. I am so thankful to of found them.
