to you. unfortunately i don’t hav eany suggestions
Just wanted to share that i remember those CONSTANT spitting up days.
they were fustrating indeed. i understand your fustration. I pray the spits up decrease soon. kendramom2007-6-1 15:5:19So sorry Beth. I hate those spitting days.
I started wearing about the same three things all the time because I didn’t want to get spit up on all my other clothes. We used a bouncy seat most of the time for Ben and watching his sister often kept him entertained. I know some moms use an exersaucer. Cooper is probably a bit young for it, but maybe if you roll up some towels and put them around him for stability??? Is he too big for a swing?
I will say though, that right about Cooper’s age, Ben’s spitting got worse.. I know it’s not what you want to hear, but our pediatrician said that even kids without reflux tend to spit up alot around 4 months because they start moving so much more.
Anyway, hang it there. It does get better.
Myles had lots of ups and downs in the amount of spitting and I remember his worst times were 4 months and 7 months. Hopefully this will pass soon. Hang in there!
I’m so sorry! Landen used to be allll silent as far as refluxing goes and over the last few weeks has become quite the puker. Not so silent anymore. I am not sure if it is b/c he is increasing his intake in food or what. It’s quite puzzling. I refuse to thicken his feeds b/c he has such an immature digestive system. I change clothes frequently now
. I also start work Monday. Should be intersting to see if he pukes on my “Business Casual” clothing. Hang in there! I am right there with ya with the spray n wash bottle. This HAS to get better… *Hugs*
Hi Beth,
I’m so sorry for all you and little Cooper have been going through with all the spitting up.
I definitely know how frustrating and tiresome all that spitting gets. Bryce has always been a huge puker until the last few months where it finally seems a little better. When he was little we used to put him in his infant car seat after he ate for 30 min. or so, or even lay him on my lap with my knees elevated. I sure hope all the spitting up starts to decrease soon!HUGS HUGS HUGS! We all know where you’re coming from. I used to lay towels and blankets all over the floor, and gave up on my own appearance. Once I went to go pick up Sarah from the daycare covered with vomit stains, and a child approached me and asked me why my shirt looked so dirty!
I hope it passes soon! Hang in there.
Thanks for the heads up about the increase around 4 and 7 months old. Cooper is super active and keeping him still is definately a challenge. I have also noticed that his feedings that are right after his meds tend to be the worst. I am wondering if it is b/c the last dose has worn off and the next dose hasn’t kicked in yet. We just finished our first week of 7.5mg/2x/day so we have one more week before I start looking to increase him again. I do have to say that at least he is happy now when he spits… I am just sick of doing laundry
. Thanks for all the hugs. My hubby worked a double shift yesterday and has to work 12 hrs today and tomorrow and of course will be gone Thursday-Sunday next week so I am getting my fill of being a single parent…. Just hope I have time to wash all my dirty laundry.Ugg….It is so hard to do it yourself.
That’s great that he seems to not be bothered when he spits up. The Prevacid must be doing something!
