[Dysphagia] Pediatric GI Discomfort

If your nephew has not seen a pediatric GI physician, he should. The BA swallow is a structural evaluation. There are many other problems that can cause GI discomfort that need to be investigated. A baby is not fussy unless something is wrong. Babies are not fussy because they want to be fussy. Please keep the list informed about your nephew as it will be beneficial for all of us. We wish you and your nephew our best and a quick resolution to his problem.

my nephew is 4 months old, healthy weight, breast fed, developing well - but cries constantly & seems to be in pain and has great difficulty burping. my sister has limited her diet - no gas producing foods, spices, dairy - with little effect. he had a BA swallow last week which r/o'd any GI abnormality - the MD said that he'd "grow out of it." the baby is more than the typical "fussy baby" and any suggestions or futher info would be appreciated!_______________________________________________
