Re: acid reflux/GERD
Seabee I'm so sorry to read about your little one. Are you comfortable with her doc and have trust in the doc? Maybe its time to ask for tests or for a 2nd opinion. Its almost invariable that when a little one doesnt want to eat its due to an underlying medical cause that makes eating an unpleasant experience. That doesnt necessarily mean that its reflux...it could be something else know what I mean? At this point, it may be better to take a more in-depth look at her GI system, how its operating and what may be going wrong.
Its heartbreaking for sure...but beleive me, its better to know and to have tests done, to give them meds when and if they need it...I let it go till my son was 2. But even then his reflux was under-treated and his gastroparesis was undiagnosed until I finally took him to a top feeding/eating disorders hospital. But by that time (almost 3 yrs) he would react to a spoon of food like an axe murderer was coming at him. Dont let it go that far. I will keep you all in prayers...little ones with eating troubles have a very special place in my heart and I hope and pray that they find and treat whatever it might be that causes eating to be such a trial for your littles.
