I wish I had more time to post!
Of my 4 children, 2 had reflux as infants, and 3 had MSPI (milk-soy protein intolerance). BTDT! If you google "infant reflux" you will find some great information. My 2 refluxers did well on the Zantac, max dosage.

Also - if you're using Alimentum, I strongly urge you to stick to the RTF (ready to feed) formula, not the powder. The powder has a high corn syrup content, which we have been told by our pedGI is more difficult for babies to digest. My kids were miserable on the powder, but have done great on the RTF. More expensive, yes...but it does help.

Anyway, PM if you have other questions. I'm most certainly not an expert, but have been around the block a time or two with this! (#4 is 10 months and still on Alimentum, but has thankfully outgrown her reflux).
