Reflux

Friday, February 24, 2006
Update on feeding problems:

Okay, we had to go back to the very beginnning with solids because she was regressing pretty bad. Now she is starting to take a few bites of pears or applesauce again up to twice a day up to 1/3 of a 4oz jar. But usually around that point she will gag and is no longer interested in eating. This happens 100% of the time if she eats that much solids. She is still on the same meds and cereal in bottle.

Bradley's speech teacher mentioned trying Gripe water to help her cope with the reflux and hopefully clear up some of the gagging. I did find some today to try on her after we see the results of the prevacid.

She also does a lot of gagging and coughing during the day due to her reflux. The cough is just a dry hacking cough so it doesn't seem to bother her at all.

I have a picture of her playing on her piano and watching TV. She loves to watch Dora just like Bradley.
