She is now vomiting almost all of her feeds and has such extreme oral aversion that she barely eats by now at all, due to that reflux. Our surgeon said that the qualifications for the Nissen are failure to thrive or pneumonia. However, my baby is having difficulty with her gross motor skills due to the constant reflux, not to mention that she has stopped orally eating now. (This week it is down to almost nothing). I guess the Nissens used to be really common but not as much anymore.<br /><br />We were sent to a geneticist because of skin tags on the ear and dermoid cysts on the eye. It was nothing. (After a month of worrying). He said that it was just abnormal but nothing to worry about. <br /><br />I'm sorry about your hospital experience.

I am not sure if that was the best decision because Joseph is small for his size and still has a hard time feeding but without having a feeding tube he has been forced to learn to eat by mouth. I am not sure what might be better but getting the nissen, for Joseph at least, literally saved his life. I know it is painful and not something you want to deal with but if the vomiting stopped it might be something to think about.<br /><br />Michelle (Facebook friend)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
