Aiden 1 month appt and Reflux


Aiden had his one month appointment a few weeks ago (i know it takes me forever to update, sorry).  At that time he weighed 7lb 14oz and measured 20 inches long.  He did decent but did not like the shot AT ALL!

At that time the dr prescribed Zantac for his reflux, which is first line in the reflux defense strategy.  Well just like with his sister the Zantac doesn't work.  Unlike with his sister though I demanded he be switched to Prevacid and it didn't take 10 months to get it approved!  He started Prevacid 2 days ago, so we will see if it helps him as much as it helped Lily.

Only catch with him being put on prevacid so early is that now we have to go see a GI specialist and get him evaluated, which I'm not thrilled about because I don't want them pushing to do a scope on the poor thing just to tell me what I already know, he has reflux and needs prevacid!  I guess i'll have to put my mama bear hat on and tell them they aren't scoping my baby without good reason!
