THERE'S A COMMON FEEDING PROBLEM PARENTS MAY ENCOUNTER WITH NEWBORNS... BUT IT MAY HAVE AN EASY SOLUTION. EYEWITNESS NEWS ANCHOR JENIFER MCANDREWS TAKES A LOOK AT HOW TO DEAL WITH INFANT REFLUX. NEW BORN BABIES BRING WITH THEM, A NEW SET OF WORRIES FOR PARENTS. AND WITH OF ALL THE HEALTH ISSUES TO WATCH FOR AND BE AWARE OF... WHO WOULD DREAM FEEDING TIME COULD BE AN ISSUE? ONE OF THE LEAST SUSPECTED PROBLEMS? IS REFLUX... IT'S SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T USUALLY START UNTIL A BABY IS 2 OR 3 WEEKS OLD. HERE'S WHAT PEDIATRICIAN JOE MATUSIC SAYS IS OKAY. Dr. Joe Matusic, MD, Pediatrician I tell parents, it's normal to have a wet burp every meal. To spit up one mouth full once a day is probably okay. Once you go past that we get concerned the child may have reflux. REFLUX IS ESSENTIALLY, A CHILD THAT SPITS UP, TOO MUCH... HERE'S HOW THAT'S MEASURED. Dr. Joe Matusic, MD A mouthful two or three time a a day or especially if they throw up after every meal. Then we get concerned. Here are few things to try to avoid the spit ups... if you're breast feeding try a different position. If you're bottle feeding, ask your doctor about adding rice cereal. Try and burp the baby more frequently during feeding. And try feeding more frequently, but less at each meal. and pay attention to how you lay them down in the crib. Dr Joe Matusic, MD After you feed them lay them on their belly with their head in the air about 45 degrees, put blankets under the mattress. That's the reflux position. The hardest position to throw up in.... and that seems to help out a bit. THE DOCTOR ADVISES THAT IF NOTHING ELSE HELPS THE BABY, THERE IS MEDICINE. AND BABIES GENERALLY OUTGROW THE CONDITION IN A FEW MONTHS. THERE'S MORE INFORMATION ON THAT ONLINE AT WCHSTV.COM.
