Need some advice for a mom. Baby is 8 weeks old. Last week baby was diagnosed with silent reflux and treated with Zantac. Mom reported baby was doing much better on medication. Before treatment she reported constant fussiness and need to nurse constant. This morning baby "projectile vomited", Mom took baby to doctor. Doctor diagnosed an allergy to milk and soy, noted blood in urine, low weight gain, and intestine inflammation. Of course, doctor wants mom to quit breastfeeding and put baby on nutramigen formula. Mom is very reluctant due to cost and knows breastmilk is best. She called to ask me, "if she was killing her baby by nursing." How do I go against what the doctor recommends? Of course, if this was me I would change my diet and continue breastfeeding. But what do I suggest to this mom? Do any of you know of creditable websites I can suggest to mom about changing her diet? Other random info: Mom has 2 other older children that had similar problems with reflux. I done a weight check over the weekend baby weighed 8lb 10oz, which was a 10 oz gain from previous weight check 2 weeks ago. Mom asked this weekend about green poops states he hasn't had yellow poops. Mom is nursing 10 to 15 minutes on each breast. Any thoughts or ideas would be helpful! Thanks so much!!
