Friday I took Matthew to the regular pediatrician. For a little over a week, he has been throwing up between 7-11PM....maybe every other day. The doctor said he has a little bit of an ear infection. He explained that 50% of kids who get ear infections, they clear up on their own, even the bacterial. We decided to give him antibiotics because his immune system is still recovering from the ACTH. The doctor gave him "strong antibiotics".

The doctor felt that because he was draining, this might have upset his stomach...causing the throwing up.

Last night Matthew threw up a little bit. We wonder if he has some sort of baby GERD or something like that. Once we sit him up, he is fine. He burps a little, but doesn't always throw up. We have found that after his last bottle, if we sit him up for 45 minutes-ish we usually don't vomit. But, sometimes he falls asleep while drinking his night time bottle, so we don't sit him up.
