11 Month Old's Decrease in Fluid Intake and Constipation

Once again, I am tapping into the collective knowledge and experience of this awesome group! My 11 month old girl is not taking in as much fluid as she used to and is constipated. She used to take about 14 ounces of formula a day, plus what I mixed in with her and her twin brother's cereal. I also offer water in a sippy cup, which she only takes a couple sips of. Lately, her formula intake has declined to about 8 to 10 ounces a day. She is having at least 1 BM a day, but she cries/wails when she does it. It is a lot firmer than her...

Spitting Up/acid Reflux

My son is 3 months old and has reflux. He takes medicine twice a day for it, we also have tried several formulas. He was on the enfamil AR for a while then i noticed that he was spitting up a lot.So i changed him to prosobee thinking maybe he needed soy milk. He did wonderful for about 5 bottles, no spit up or anything. Then his 5/530 bottle he lost it all and continued like that the rest of the night. We have noticed a trend that he does great all day but starting in the evening he starts spitting up, but its not just a little bit. We feed...

Major Poop Explosions

Dear Moms, Please help me. My daughter usually has daily bowl movements, however when she skips a day or two she ends up pooping a ton more than usual. When this happens, I change her immediately and when I lay her down the poop slides up out of her diaper and onto her back and sides everytime. The other day we were out having lunch and this happened at a restaurant. We rushed her to the restroom immediately and it was already too late. What do you do to prevent the poop from coming out of the top of the diaper? She is almost 5 months...

Thanks for All Your Advice!!!

My 5.5 month old daughter has her first sickness--diarrhea since Friday. We took her to urgent care and they said it is probably rotavirus. I just wanted to know if anyone has any advice on how to get her to drink fluids--she hates anything other than her formula and she won't even drink that very much. I am currently giving her lactinex granules in her formula to help her stomach combat the virus (doctor told me to do this). Also, she has developed a pretty nasty diaper rash so any advice on curing and helping this would be appreciated...

How Much Should I Feed My 20 Month Old Son?

Hello moms! My Matthew is a healthy little man. He is the absolutely joy in our world. But, I have a problem. We have had to take him to the pediatrician because of a gagging reflex. It just depends on the food, but he will gag until he throws up. He loves most stage 2 baby foods and only a couple stage 3 (the very smooth foods). He can't eat the lasagna chunky stuff, or he'll gag and up it comes! He can't eat cherrios, puffs, anything. Our pediatrician says he'll grow of this by age 2. My question is...how many jars should I be feeding my...

Does This Sound like Gallstones?

I have had this pain for about 2 or 3 years, and I put it down to indigestion, because it comes on after I eat stupid foods like a huge bag of potato chips or something. The pain is really severe, and lasts a couple of hours, and I can generally be found writhing on the floor and taking everything in my medicine cupboard to try and get rid of it. It struck me last night at 2 am, while pacing the house in extreme pain, that this may be something other than indigestion, as the pain starts below my breastbone, then gradually spreads under...
