Baby - Reflux
New baby with major reflux issues other than a hiatal hernia what else do you suggest. The doctors have him on Zantac. -LeRae McBroom

Take the baby to a chiropractor - make sure they are on either breast or goat's milk. I would also MT for Homeopathic Colic, -Kasara

Slippery Elm!!!! Get him off the Zantac immediately and give him some Slippery Elm in his bottle. Slippery Elm is also great for diaper rash-just sprinkle it on and it is gone. -John

Regardless of whether this is reflux, vomiting, or projectile vomiting...
-Catnip & Fennel 2 drops at the start of each feed
-1/2 capsule of Slippery Elm given in tine amounts into baby's cheek (not directly onto baby's tongue) - smaller more frequent feeds -Judith Cobb

Chamomile is very calming to the stomach and safe for a small child. Use like a tea in the bottle - do not use honey. Judy |
