The twins (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif) came home Wednesday evening at about 7pm....we finally got to bed at 2:30 in the morning (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Feeding every 3 hours is getting "fun", hahahaha

While at the hospital, Taylor started to have symtoms of acid reflux and was spitting her milk/formula out of her mouth and nose. Not a big deal while hooked up to monitors. Before going home the doctors gave us a prespription for Zantac to help control it. Worked fine at the hospital but now at home shes done it a few times while asleep and we caught it by listening to the monitors in their room....

Luckly for us the girls have woken up during the few events, but it is very nerve racking and we are damn near afraid to go aspleep

I did some research and found some good info and things that help ease it until they grow out of it, but was wondering what other have found to work for sure.

Yes, i will be consulting the dr.s in the morning....

I will start with congratulations!
My nine month old son had his intestine collapse at six days old. After the surgery, he did fine for two and a half months then started vomiting again. The local doctors treated him for reflux., reglan and zantac. What really had happened was scar tissue from surgery # one created a new obstruction.
My advice is talk to a specialist in gastro intestine field and MOST importantly... TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS!
I would then ask you if it is small amounts of "spit up", or larger amounts and what color and odor?
If it is small amounts and white curdles, it is spit up. If it is large amounts and yellow liquid, Bile=not good.
I will send MANY warm sleepful thoughts your way.
