Reflux

We just found out that all three babies have reflux. Someone almost always projectile vomits every feeding. The doctor put the babies on two different medications. They are taking Prevacid and Metoclopramide. The prevacid will help with the pain from the reflux and the Metoclopramide is supposed to help decrease the puking. We think it is working because instead of all three babies vomiting 3 to 4 times a day each, we are down to each baby vomiting only about once a day. We hope that this medication solves the problem and that the babies will outgrow this soon. We also bought Dr. Browns bottles yesterday. We were told by many people that these bottles will make a difference with reflux babies. So, we will see. I am willing to try anything at this point.
