Hi all. I have a 4-1/2 months old, Ryan. When he was born they told me he was lactose intolerant. He's on Enfamil Laco-free but this does not seem to agree with him. We tried him on the regular stuff a few month ago but that also did not agree with him.
He has always spit-up a little - but here lately it's getting worse. It's not just the 'spit-up' anymore, it's down right vomiting. What should I do, if anything? My mom and hubby seems to think he's just teething...do ya think?
Thanks.

Thank you for the info. I took him to the doc this morning and he thinks the same thing. Acid Reflux - but did not give me anything to give him.? Suggested the rice cereal in the formula but that's it... let me ask you a couple of questions:
1. Did your child get fussy allot or just late in the day?
2. Did he/she want to eat ALL the time?
3. When they spit up was it formula and water or just formula?
Ryan throws up most of what he eats and I feel like all I do is feed him, especially late in the afternoon - evening. When he spits up, the first time its formula, then the next two times it looks like water.
YIKES!!! I'm looking into getting a new doctor as this one has no patience and would not let me explain ANYTHING... UUUGGGGHHHHH!!!!
Thank you for all the help and advice. It's greatly appreciated.
I agree with you on getting a new pedi.
DD spit up alot. It was never called acid reflux with her but more of a sensitive stomach. A couple of formulas I would suggest while you are looking for your new ped it Enfamil AR which has rice added so you don't have to add the cereal. DD never used this, but I know others who did. What DD did use was Alimentum. It's pretty expensive, but the protiens are partially broken down so it's easier to digest. I hope you find a new ped soon. I wouldn't be able to tolerate the unwillingness to listen either.
