She only finally (at 5 months) had the ph study done and it confirmed really severe silent reflux. Thankfully she has responded well, albeit slowly to Omeprazole but I know what you mean re tummy bugs.

Hi, my little boy is a year old and has suffered from what we think has been silent reflux since birth. He saw a pediatrician about 3 months ago and was put onto 10mg twice a day of omeprazole for 4 weeks. During that 4 weeks he had 2 gastric bugs and was very sick so I had to stop giving the pills during that time. All in all it was a total nightmare because the drugs seemed to cause trapped wind at night, he was still up screaming through the night with wind, so we seemed to go from one…See More
Kate Day de Reyes commented on Susan Crawford's blog post Does Omeprazole cause trapped wind?"Mine just started on Omeprazole two days ago, but my baby has had trapped wind forever! At the beginning that's why the doctor thought he was crying. We give him Simethicone drops before feeds. When it's really bad we give him simethicone…"

Hi all, I am new to this forum and desperately in need of some advice. My little boy is 9 months old and has suffered from reflux from birth.

The problem I have now is that he appears to have terrible trapped…See More
