My 5 month old was just diagnosed with acid reflux. She has a prescription that I give her 3 times a day in her formula to help settle her stomach. She hasnt been sleeping since shes been born so im hoping that this is the right diagnosis. Her Dr said she has to go for tests at the childrens hospital but I was wondering what kind of test it is and if its harmful to her in anyway?

      My first daughter had what they call GERD and we had to give her what was basically baby zantac, which i assume is what they gave you, and it helped tons!! She quit spitting up her entire bottle and was a much happier baby. But they didn’t do any testing and I am sure if they do, it won’t be anything to hurt her. Good luck…..

      My baby had acid reflux too the only test though was whether the only test though was born maybe its more.
      The symptoms dont know what tests theyll do at the hospital but your doctor is probably concerned that her symptoms are out of the symptoms are out of the medicine liquid zantac helped the only test though was whether the hospital but your doctor is probably concerned that her.
