It's slower than a wean and babies generally tolerate it better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weaning-off-reflux-meds#post-2078278 Fri, 20 Feb 2015 10:32:38 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2078278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For those of you with a reflux baby, when did you wean off the meds? DS is on Omeprezole and at his 6mo check the doctor said we can start weaning him off of it. We started by halfing the dose, but on day 2 he was hiccupping after every meal. I talked to the nurse and she said she'd recommend going back on a full dose. I'm terrified to backtrack on breastfeeding since we're finally at a good place! </p>
