Baby Zantac

Who would have thought there was really such a thing as infant Zantac?  Lily has been a really spitty eater since she was born.  In the past few weeks, her feedings have become super fussy and projectile vomiting has been more frequent.  She's been screaming during her feedings, pushing the bottle away, wriggling and kicking, and then spewing what we did manage to get down all over the place.  There were days where she would projectile vomit three or four times.  I have done more loads of laundry in the past two weeks than I have in my entire life and I'm now regretting not having our furniture scotch guarded.

After changing both Lily's and my clothes twice in four hours on Monday, I called the pediatrician.  At all of her checkups we'd been discussing her reflux and as long as she was happy Dr. Lake didn't feel there was a need for medication.  Now that she was so unhappy, they prescribed her with Zantac.  Since starting her on the medication Monday evening, she has only had exorcist like vomiting twice.  Knock on wood, this decreasing trend will continue.  If it doesn't - I'm investing in a commercial sized washer and dryer.
