Reflux

Today started off early and a bit rocky.  He has shown significant signs of reflux yesterday afternoon and overnight, so they stopped his feeds by bottle and fed him continuous over the pump to slow them down as well as added Prevacid (he already takes Pepcid).  He had been on Prilosec but they had taken him off it early last week thinking he was not needing it; however, he's now showing us otherwise.   Prayerfully this will help him.   Throughout the day, we started back bottle feeds and by tonight's feeding, he was back to his prior goal of 70 ml.  He had a pretty good day today with a few de-satting episodes, but he was able to pull out of them within a few minutes.  A physical therapist came and worked with him yesterday and an occupational therapist came today.  They worked with him as well as gave me ideas on how to work with his muscles as well as massage.  These are important as he hasn't gotten the typical stimulation or movement that babies usually get throughout their initial weeks of life.
