Maggie's New Medicine

We changed Maggie's acid reflux medication from Zantac to Prevacid on Monday afternoon, and she is a completely different baby now! :) She is so happy all the time and does not arch her back or act uncomfortable in her carseat or even the stroller. I am so happy that we found the magic pill to make our little girl feel better. Initially the doctor thought it was colic, and since there is no remedy, I was simply waiting out the fussiness. Now we have THE solution.

Even though the medicine does not claim to reduce spit up, Maggie has NOT spit up any sigificant amount since we started Prevacid, and she is consistently eating 4-5 ounces every 3 hours.


Today she even took a nap unswaddled for the first time. She lasted about an hour! :) She did wake up and needed the swaddle to get comfortable again, but it was good practice.
