Hi everyone,
Our 5 1/2 month old daughter has had a long history of reflux and MSPI issues. We have seemed to find some balance with Neocate and Prevacid to help with these issues but seem to still struggle with one thing – atomic bowel movements. What I mean by this is that she seems to have 4 to 5 days of contentment but every fifth day really struggles. Near the end of that 5th day she has a strong Neocate poop (very dark and very large) that turns her little bum bright red. After the movement we generally see noticable improvement in her behavior (less fussiness, happier baby).
Has anyone experienced something like this. It seems that we have the reflux under control with Prevacid. Her upper GI has certainly improved over the days of constant crying/screaming. Now, it appears her lower GI still doesn’t have the ph balance we’re hoping for. I’ve read throughout a number of posts that mylanta is something that works for some. Any advice? Thank you so much!
