this is really annoying me….sorry i have to make this fast dont have much time….
i was reading parents magazine i think it was the Jan. issue in our docs office. there was a little column about infant reflux. it basically said that medicating it is useless because “at current doses” it is ineffective.
UGH!
why is DR PHILLIPS and a few other docs the ONLY people that understand the whole metabolism thing in infants?
it makes me so mad bc what if a new mom with a reflux baby read that and now she is hopeless? its sad! i want the marci kids info to spread already!AND our ped told me that the other day she went to a conference in atlanta on infant reflux. never once did they mention PPI’s. they basically made it sound like its just something they have to “grow out of” and theres nothing that can be done.
poor babies
That is the whole reason I want Oprah to do a story on it. All these Drs. think they know best. Well, let them come live in my home for a few days and nights.
Babies are supposed to outgrow reflux at 9 months and Justice isn’t there yet. I am already going mad. I can’t imagine him not being on meds at all. If I get the time I am going to e-mail the parents magazine. Hey, if you find the email to the parents mag , post it and then we can all email them. Maybe they will get the message and do an article or something
It’s so frustrating and sad.
I keep hoping that one day Prevacid will be available OTC like some of the H2 Blockers are now. That will be a saving grace to so many parents. Just buy the stuff and follow Dr. Phillip’s recommendations.
