I think my LO has silent reflux. I am taking her to the doctor tomorrow to see. Is there anyone else going through this? She will be 3 weeks old tomorrow.

I think my son has that but I haven't had it diagnosed because we aren't anywhere near his doctor. He will be 3 weeks on Saturday. What are her symptoms? I am interested to know what the doctor says.

my son is now 11 months old but had AWFUL reflux as an infant. We knew he was refluxing in his sleep cause he would suddenly start choking and gasping on nothing.

THE BEST thing we did was buy a sleep positioner and prop him up on one side to sleep...that helped ALOT plus if he did full on spit up in his sleep I didn't worry as much about him choking in it.

My daughter is 11 months old and has horrible reflux. She gags and chokes all of a sudden and spits up at least 3 times with every feeding and in between feedings. She is on zantac and it hasn't helped.

She sleeps inclined on a nap nanny and we really can't lay her flat unless we want to clean up spit up. The good thing is it seems to not bother her at all so we will just wait it out until she gets older and it eases up.
