Nicola - just a thought too....if the popping on and off with crying keeps up and heads back to the pain variety again, it could mean you need a change in reflux meds.  Zantac worked for us for a few days (partially), but it all came back, and only got better once we switched to prevacid.  Sometimes you just need something a bit stronger....

I agree.  Curtis is SO much better now that he's on Zantac.  If he pops on and off, its more b/c he wants to see what's going on, w/out the arching back and screaming.  He's like a new baby.  Its amazing how much cuter they get when they start eating and sleeping better :)

What you are describing sounds like what I was going through before he started the meds, and he's only been on them for 4 days!  The change started within the first day.

Erin and Kris, thank you both  :)  Really interesting.  The crying hasn't been too bad.  She is feeding lots and taking good feeds and for the most part the crying has gone again.  Really very strange.  I am definitely going to keep an eye on things and head back to the GP if anything seems to be worsening.

How's everyone else and the bubba's?  All stopped fussing?  ;D ;)
