Miracle medicine!Happy baby! Happy Mommy!

Ryker cried all the time for the first two months of his life. The second I would lay him down he would cry. he even cried most of the time when he was being held. Dave called him the Whiner! And if he wasn't crying this is his classic face- he is or was always scowling. A look I am fairly sure he inherited from me. During this first two months I slept very little and was sure I was on the verge of loosing my mind. But you know they have this miracle drug out there that changed my baby from a miserable crying baby to a happy cooing baby. It is called Axil (basically baby zantac) The doctor explained that what Ryker had was reflux and when I laid him down he was experiencing heart burn. (I had some pretty terrible heart burn while I was pregnant
and its painful) I am so grateful for modern medicine and that now I have a happy baby that sleeps and night. Happy baby. Happy mommy.

Oh, I'm so glad you were able to find something to make Ryker feel better. I would have gone insane! Glad things are better now.

Yeah! Glad to hear he is content and mommy too. He's a cutie, even with the scowl.

I cannot even imagine going through that. Isn't modern medicine amazing?! I'm so glad the Doctor figured it out before you lost your mind!
