 | I am not familiar with some of the brands that you listed, I am curious if any of them are soy based? Are they proteins that are pre-broken down? My son was very similar. We tried many formulas - Nutrimigen, Alemetum etc.... Ended up increasing his Zantac to .6 ML 3 times daily until around 2 months then he went to .8 ML 3 times daily. We also started with Good Start and it worked wonderfully. I have heard that doctors have quite a varied prescription amount of Zantac for infants as it is quite new. Also, we had a hard time with him taking it since it tastes like peppermint. We mixed it with just a smidge of pear juice in a tiny bottle and had best success when we gave it to him right before his regular bottle.
We did the upper GI, showed only normal reflux. I would bet that the Endoscopy shows nothing abnormal either. If she starts to eat good, and is acting hungry, then pulls away, there is definately a gas reaction to the formula (like I said I didn't know if it was cows milk based or soy) or a reflux issue. I am curious to hear how much zantac you were prescribed. My sister had a baby just before us and her Dr prescribed 1/2 of what ours did. She didn't get any relief until they upped the dosage. Good luck!! |
