And because she was throwing up all her dinner, she was waking up multiple times a night hungry - it was brutal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-reflux-symptoms#post-2033637 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 11:24:13 +0000 edelweiss 2033637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my friend's LO had bad reflux as an infant, outgrew it, and then it popped up again around 4 years of age. apparently growth spurts can trigger it. not sure if this applies to your LO or not, but yes definitely sounds like it's worth talking about it with the doctor! poor thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-reflux-symptoms#post-2033628 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 11:19:07 +0000 LuLu Mom 2033628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pirouette: I would definitely bring it up to the doctor, they might be able to pinpoint. Because she did have MSPI I'm still thinking it might be a little dairy intolerance causing the discomfort (and it could be causing reflux as well.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-reflux-symptoms#post-2033613 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 11:08:57 +0000 Pirouette 2033613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: we actually introduced wcm at 10 months (i know, bad!) because she wouldn't take BM or formula. and even now, she'll take a max of 7oz of wcm, she's just never been a milk drinker. she eats tons of yogurt, cheese, etc. however, she had MSPI from 4-10 months, and then outgrew it, but maybe she didn't? i guess this could be a dairy issue, it just seems strange it would emerge all of the sudden when she's been eating tons of dairy with no symptoms for months now. </p> <p>@Madison43: that's crazy! i wonder if that's what she is going through too. do you have any idea what caused it to come on so suddenly and heal so quickly?</p> <p>@Mrs Green Grass: at first i thought an actual illness, especially with the stomach flu going around - but it's been going on for a few days with no other symptoms, so i'm guessing it's more like silent reflux. Guess it's time to bring her in to the doc! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-reflux-symptoms#post-2033564 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 10:29:50 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2033564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>13 months isn't that late. It's true most babies outgrow it early, but mine was on Prevacid until 18 months. It does sound like either silent reflux or an actual illness... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-reflux-symptoms#post-2033521 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 10:10:09 +0000 Madison43 2033521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just after she turned 1, my daughter started vomiting every single night right after she went into her crib. She'd go down fine, be basically asleep and then start whimpering, stand up and throw up (tmi - just not a little spit up, the entire contents of her stomach). She is dairy intolerant but nothing in her diet had changed. Ped thought it was reflux and prescribed Zantac and it stopped immediately. She took Zantac for about a month and now everything is back to normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-reflux-symptoms#post-2033486 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 09:52:30 +0000 LuLu Mom 2033486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter has always had reflux (even as a baby) however she is still on Prevacid at 2 1/2 years old, some kids don't outgrow it right away. However, I don't know what the chances are to get it more as a toddler. Did you switch her to cow's milk at 12 months? Maybe it's the diary intake causing her issues/sensitivity? Is there a chance she could she possible be lactose intolerant, I believe gassy/uncomfortable is a sign of that and the timeline would fit? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toddler-reflux-symptoms#post-2033461 Wed, 21 Jan 2015 09:37:04 +0000 Pirouette 2033461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the past few days, maybe a week, my LO has been regurgitating, burping, belching, i don't know what to call it. we keep thinking she's going to throw up but she gets it back down every time. We haven't introduced any new foods, so i'm not sure what's going on, but it seems like a silent reflux maybe? i thought most babies outgrew that by a year. heartburn? the past 2 nights, she hasn't been able to eat dinner because she's uncomfortable - she seems hungry but then won't eat and just wants to nurse instead (which is really inconvenient since she had started the weaning process and dried up my supply so i can't provide her with enough now!) she's been waking at night and dying to nurse as well. Anyway, is it possible to have silent reflux start this late? (she's 13 months). is there something else this could be? She's also slightly congested and definitely teething, but she's always teething, and this has never happened before.</p> <p>Any suggestions? </p>
