GERD on my baby
Hello,My name is Dana and i am from Romania. I want to tell you about my daughter, 3months old.
On 07.06.2013 was diagnose with GERD, with more than 100 reflux episodes per day and acid=4.
Our specialist prescribed Nexium 5mg per day and Motilium 1.5ml 3times per day. After two weeks the only good thing that happened was that she start eating (in the past she could stay without food more than 16hours). Seeing that we went to a homeopathy doctor that prescribed Nux Vomica and Gentiana - 3pils 3 times a day with 1ml of water. After a week of that we could see some improvement, but not enough. Someone recommend us Robinia 6ch when she is in pain.
In this moment my daughter still crying to some meals (she is feed with Humana AR), she is having severe stomachache, she is full of gase and cant release them, she is having crying crises when she is arching her back. That can last more than 20min, nothing is making her comfortable.
Please help us. Here, in Romania, they are limited. I am in pain every time that my princess is crying. Is too much for her.
Thanks in advance

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please DO NOT GIVE your 3 month old Princess Nexius and Motilium as prescribed by your doctors. This is a PPI Drug and you can do a search on Google for 'The danger of PPI Drugs'.
I shall copy below my default therapy for baby GERD and you should discover that baby will respond in about 3 hours.
When she does, please confirm progress on this page.
It is very likely that your baby suffers from Gastric Reflux aka GERD (Gastro Esophagal Reflux Disease)
The remedy that has proved to be very effective for Baby GERD is:
Nat Phos 6x dose half tablet dissolved in milk given immediately after a feed. If you discover that baby does not respond to the half tablet you can increase the dosage to a full tablet given after every feed but not to exceed 5 tablets in 24 hours.
Please ensure that you ask for the Biochemic Cell Salt always sold in tablet form as the Homeopathic version in pellets is not of any use.
It is essential that you burp baby immediately after each feed.
You will avoid eating all food that can cause any distress to baby.You must know that they are passed on to baby through your breast milk.
You (the mother) will take Nat Phos 6x dose 2 tablets after each of 3 meals daily and Arnica 30c in the Wet dose taken twice daily. The idea is that your milk will pass the effect to baby. You may like to know that this remedy will also help to reduce your weight by 1kg per week very safely.

I would give the pellets a try and see if they work.
Many homeopaths do not see any difference between
a 6x pellet and a 6x tablet. If that is all you have available
try it out. Dissolve 1pellet in a couple
tablespoons of water and give to the baby
after each of three meals. And in Europe
the 6x is often called D6, it is the same
as x.
Joe, sometimes it is very hard to get
the cell salts, in certain countries.

You or your husband will first visit your Homeopathic Pharmacy and ask for Nat Phos 6x TABLETS in the Biochemic Cell Salt.
If you cannot get the tablets and can only get the pellets you will dissolve 2-3 pellets, presuming that they are about 3mm Ø.
You will then report baby's response after the third feed using my therapy.

ok..i will that and let you know the result. What about the rest of homeopathic medicine? i should stop them?
melek16 last decade
I must admit that I am somewhat surprised that you have inquired about continuing the remedies that your homeopath in your city has prescribed which you wish to continue in spite of their NOT helping him.
The choice is yours. Continue with the remedies you are already using or use mine.
You CANNOT MIX mine with the others as it is most likely that neither will work.
I must mention here that it is only the Biochemic Cell Salt of Nat Phos 6x that will work. This is available throughout the world in TABLET form but you stated that you were not hopeful of getting them in this format. If the pellets do not work, you will have to order this remedy from the UK and I can give you the address of vendors from whom you can mail order them.

Hi-
From the places listed only ONE sells cell salts and that is
Ainsworths. You would have to call them or email them to
see if they even ship to your area and how much that is.
My feeling is that most of the big homeopathic pharmacies online
do not carry cell salts is due to the thinking that the
homeopathic 6x of the salt works the same.

thanks simone...i just emailed to them to see if they are shipping in romania. i hope they do..anyway i talked with someone in usa to help me..if she can
melek16 last decade
Talked to someone in Usa about cell salts or about
the Gerd?
Nat phos works well on the Gerd. It is not going to hurt
anything, so try a pill of it in the 6x and see if anything
happens, if you have the 6x.

about Nat phos..the pb is that in romania we can find only ch. we just came from drug store
melek16 last decade
Hi- the other place that probably can ship for sure to you-
is DKO naturals, in Canada.
The product is Dr recekweg S10 nat phos 6x.
( I think Dr. Reckeweg is by far the best brand of cell salts)
DKO is quick to ship and ships worldwide. Try them over any
usa company. Ainsworths may be less money for shipping, but
they are more of a local UK company.

I am going to give you info on what it says in my self help
book for colic.
You can use a 30c Remedy. 3 pellets every 4 hours until you
see baby is improved. If no improvement after 3 doses then
try another medicine. After you see improvement give
another dose Only if symptoms return.
The remedies to try are:
Colocynthis- baby doubled over or brings knees up to chest
Magnesia Phosphorica-bloating and excess gas, worse after milk
Aethusa-cannot tolerate milk
Calcaria Carbonica- baby happy unless colic, sweats a lot on head,
Chamomilla-arches the back extreme fussy- cannot console
Nux vomica-wakes at 3 am and cannot burp
Carbo vegetabilis-frequent belching and baby is better after this
Try dill water, one half teaspoon of dill to 2 cups of boiling water- steep
this and give 3x a day.

I would try mag phos first. it is for
trapped gas
The 6x is a low potency that may need to be given every 2 to 4 hours.
The 30c is a good midpoint range -
you are not going to hurt anything here-
and if I was in your situation, I would
try the mag phos first, 30c and I would
even try the nat phos 30c.
Dilute the pellets in 2 tablespoons of water
and try it out.

You try to give the remedy that matches the condition of
the baby.
You try to pick closest match. Try it 3 times. Give 4 hours gap. If nothing
happens it is the wrong one, and then go on to the
next remedy till you find the right one.
When one of them give improvement, don't give any
more unless things start to return.

Yes, I know how distressing this is- one of my kids
had this. One of these remedies is going to work.

Nux Vomica 30c in the Wet dose will also help baby till you get the Nat Phos 6x.
You can give her about quarter teaspoonful mixed into a feed and see if it helps her to overcome her acidity which is causing her so much distress. Please note that you will not exceed over 4 doses of quarter teaspoonful each in 24 hours
If, as you state, she is pulling on her ear rings it is obvious that you must remove them off before she tears her ear lobes.
I would NOT advise you to experiment with remedies merely because someone has listed them in a book.
Nat Phos 30c does not help like Nat Phos 6x does.
Report her progress after 2 feeds.

Joe,
if we cant find here 6x, do you think we can find wet dose? in romania people just started to learn about homeopathy.
my princess had a lot of stress in the past month..3weeks in hospital between needles and doctors.

Joe,
these are remedies listed to try as self help for colic in babies,
by Dr. Judyth Ullman a very famous homeopath and homeopathic
teacher.
Melek,
you don't have to 'find' a wet dose. You just simply make a wet dose.
Wet dose just means dissolving the remedy in water.
You take one to three pills of the Nux Vomica 30c-The book says
use 3 pills .Dissolve that in a 1/4 cup of spring water or
bottled water- then give her a quarter of a teaspoonful- I myself would
not mix this into her formula, I would give it a half hour before
she is fed or a half hour after she is fed.
Everyone has different ways on doing these things.

Sorry Dana!
Well go try out the nux like Joe said.
Do not do over 4 doses, probably after
3 times you will know if it helps or
not.
Actually when you have a chance,
Ainsworths has a very good home kit
for mother and child ( I think up to 7 years old) with remedies and instructions
for self help-I had a kit like that and it
was a huge help.
