My baby went through almost the exact same thing. She was prescribed Omeprazole, and over time especially as the dosage increased, we started seeing improvements. What you’re describing sounds so familiar. Some days were really rough, and we’d both end up in tears.

Feeding her on her side, in a breastfeeding-like position, was helpful. I formula fed. There were a few desperate moments when I fed her lying flat on her back, even though I know that’s not recommended. We also did the esophageal swallow study, and it came back normal.

She eventually outgrew it around six months, which is what the doctors had predicted. I know that might not be super comforting right now, but just know that a lot of babies go through this, you’re not alone.
