Momof4,

I don’t remember exactly when we started treating her for reflux the 1st time, seems like maybe around 4 months. We stopped it when she was probably 14 months or so. She vomited all the time but when that stopped we just assumed she had outgrown it.

I gave her 2 doses of Zantac today and have put her to bed. We’ll see what happens. I also asked my pediatrician today about the effects of the steroids on sleep and she agreed that that could be it. She said that some people are just more sensitive to medicines like that and it affects them differently, but she also added that since she has to have the Cortef to live, there isn’t much we can do.  She is thinking of putting her on Clonidine if the whole Zantac thing doesn’t work. I have mixed feelings on that so I will be researching it. She said that she would have to talk to our endo before she did anything.

The funny thing is that Kennedy’s twin sister (also SWCAH) sleeps like a dream!!

Please keep me posted on your baby and I will do the same. Hopefully, together we can get some sleep!!

Cassy
