How I Overcame Baby Reflux: My Journey to Discovering the Root Cause of Crying and Tongue Tie

The Early Struggle: Understanding My Baby's Reflux

When my daughter, J, was born, we were faced with what seemed like endless crying. Little did I know then, this was the start of our journey through baby reflux – a challenging time that no one seemed to have clear answers for.

Unexplained Crying and the Breastfeeding Dilemma

For the first few months of J’s life, she cried for hours on end. Exclusive breastfeeding, no bottles, no pacifiers – all of it felt like the right choice, but the endless rocking, holding, and trying to soothe my baby left me exhausted. Everyone assured me it was "normal," but something inside me knew it was more than just colic.

Coping with Extreme Crying: Becoming a "Zombie Mom"

The crying peaked around 3-4 months. J would scream for up to 50 minutes before each nap, leaving me drained and questioning myself as a parent. I struggled to maintain any semblance of normalcy. Balancing work, the demands of breastfeeding, and dealing with this unexplained crying turned me into what I can only describe as a "zombie mom."

Planning for My Second Baby: Lessons Learned and New Strategies

When I became pregnant with my second child, Z, I was determined to approach things differently. I wanted to avoid making the same "mistakes." I planned to introduce a pacifier, a formula bottle, and better sleep habits to make things easier – but little did I know, this journey would bring its own challenges.

The Turning Point: Discovering Tongue Tie and Seeking Solutions

It wasn't until a follower suggested a possible tongue tie that the puzzle started to come together. Initially, I was skeptical – Z could stick out her tongue, after all. But as more comments pointed me towards The Baby Reflux Lady, I decided to look her up and see what the fuss was about.

The Baby Reflux Lady Course: A Game-Changing Discovery

Finding this course was like finding a lifeline. Though the price gave me pause, desperation pushed me to reach out. Within days of starting the course, Z’s crying drastically reduced. I learned that reflux is not a disease but a symptom, often connected to underlying issues like tongue tie, food allergies, or anatomy. This realization was life-changing for our family.

Understanding Tongue Ties: A Family Trait Uncovered

Through the course, I discovered that both my children, myself, my husband, and even my siblings all had tongue ties. The impacts were numerous – from poor sleep to picky eating, speech delays, and even mouth breathing. Knowing this helped me feel empowered. Even though we haven’t yet decided whether to release Z’s tongue tie, understanding what’s causing her reflux has brought me immense peace. I am no longer that frazzled mom bouncing her child from one person to another, clueless about how to soothe her baby.

Practical Solutions for Reflux: A Step-by-Step Approach

The course emphasized that reflux isn’t something to just "live with." It's a symptom that can be addressed by understanding its root causes. I began implementing changes immediately – and the difference was almost miraculous. Within two days, my baby’s crying was reduced to a few minutes before naps.
