hey there,

we were away & along the way I visited a high school friend- of course her baby has reflux & I cannot believe I’m just hearing about it now, when baby is 9 & 1/2 months…well, as much as i love my friend she’s not so great about keeping in touch, nor is she a ‘complainer’- also I don’t know if she knew/knows how much of a guru I am, LOL!!!

ok so me being me, I had dh stop at a walmart on the way to her house- my thought was that I’d show up w/ some mylanta cherry supreme & even some pepcid ac…

Where on earth does one find the mylanta? when ari was born, I recall looking for it & the one place i did find it was walmart…hmmm…

also, there are a ton of pepcid chewables out there!! which one for our babies??

thanks!

Where I live we have 2 Walmarts; only one has the Cherry Supreme Mylanta. Our Target also has the Cherry Supreme, but most of our grocery stores don’t carry it. I think you might have to “hunt”.

When we were not on a high enough dose of Prevacid, I gave Nicholas Pepcid Complete Chewable Berry flavored. I ended up smashing it up in a small bowl with a spoon and dissolving it with about 3-4mls of water. Then I sucked it up with an oral syringe and gave it to him.

Dh was the one that went out & bought Mylanta (I remember it clear as anything… Evan was 2wks old & it was the worst day ever)… anyway, he either got it @ Publix grocery store (I know you know what that is since you’re from FL) or Target. I’m almost positive he went to Publix though.

We got ours at Target and at Kroger.. most luck at the target though. I bought the pepcid complete berry flavor for Cooper but I ended up taking it instead for my nightly bought of heartburn.. it works fast and tastes good. I would use about a 1/2 tab and do what Kristin said about smashing and water.

We found our mylanta at Rite Aid Pharmacy ( You should know that one from up Ct.. maybe down south has it too.. not sure?).. but anyhow similar to CVS.

And we gave the pepcid complete berry flavor as well…. half a tab.. crushed with a little water on the spoon.

Let us know how things go with your friends baby!
