Zantac

I have been so very bad at keeping up with this blog between taking care of Conor, Hunter, Josh and being back at work full time.  I had planned to do a big update last week while I had helpers but I was surprised with a mini-vacation and spa trip which was amazing (more on that in another post).  But, I wanted to give an update on Conor and Zantac.  We started the medication on Friday 2/17/12 so it has been 10 days and I now consider it a miracle medication.  It did take several days to begin to notice any changes but I am proud to say we now have a happier (and healthier) baby boy!  It has been almost a week since we have experienced chronic crying and screaming and we are so very thankful for that!

He is still receiving the minimal dose (1mg BID) and I do not intend to ask for an increase nor do I intend to take him off of it anytime soon.  I think we will use it for at least two months to see if with a little more growing he is able to handle the reflux on his own.  It is a goal of mine to try to catch up on the 365 project tonight (I have the pictures but I haven't put them into blog for yet) so hopefully there will be some new posts this week!
