Hiya, yup we went down the whole reflux route with T, you have my utmost sympathies if it is that, (well, you have anyway!). We went to the docs who then referred us to the hospital and they then threw the whole medicine cabinet at us. Basically, they tend not to do a test unless it is v severe, their way of diagnosing is to give medicines and then if they respond then they say "yes, it's reflux" and if not, then it's "no, it must be something else but they'll probably grow out of it".
The medicines did make some difference with us (the domperidone and ranitidine but not gaviscon) but to be honest it was time that made a difference. We threw a whole lot of money at the problem, buying special wedges for the cot to keep him upright etc, but nothing made a huge difference, I would go to the GP asap though just to get yourself in the system.
effie, do I remember rightly that your DS2 has an inhaler? If so, how do you get him to take it? I really really struggle with T (he's so strong it's impossible to physically pin him down) and he's wheezy as hell at the moment but no amount of trying it out on us or his teddies first makes a difference. It's a huge game with others, then a huge trauma when it comes to him.
WG, sympathies with the insomnia. I had it at the beginning, and it was nothing to do with weeing either. I think it is just a phase but bloody annoying.
Oh, btw I wanted to share this article with you, a friend sent it to me and I found it very relevant to my situation and actually quite helpful with suggestions as to ways of dealing with issues. here
