no more reflux


this photo is of baby bear at 3 months when he was diagnosed with acid reflux ... 

although he had been suffering from it since the age of 3 weeks, his mother was in denial that anything was wrong ... now, it seems so obvious, for example screaming during feeds or the moment we laid him down to play or sleep ...

at 3 months he was prescribed zoton to alleviate his symptoms, within a week we had a different baby ... since then we have unsuccessfully tried him off his medication a number of times, with his symptoms returning within a five day period ... 

we are very happy to let you know that he has now (at 18 months) been off his medication for about 3 weeks ... and is doing really well ...

baby bear has been a wonderful blessing to our family ... we are so thankful God entrusted him to us ... we love him to bits ....
