so the little dude has recently had some coughing issues. it seems to only be when he's eating and an hour or two afterwards. the doctor seems to think it could be a mild case of acid reflux. poor guy, he strains to cough sometimes and it really breaks my heart to hear it. but at least it's not waking him up at night or anything. and he shows no other signs of being sick, so i'm agreeing with the doctor on the acid reflux diagnosis.
to try and treat it, we're now adding one teaspoon of rice cereal to his bottles. we'll see if this does the trick...if not then we'll have to add gas drops in addition to the rice cereal and see if that works. i'm really hoping the cereal clears things up. i'm trying to avoid giving him medicine as long as i can. i'm also hoping that he outgrows this reflux business soon.
