Guest guest Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 Terri, We are just starting my son on Brainchild vitamins and minerals. We are only giving it at two meals and working up pretty slowly. We are on day 6 (1/4 tsp of each at breakfast and lunch) and his reflux has come back. Typically (sorry if this is too graphic), he throws- up after drinking. Doesn't matter if it is juice or water, but if he drinks a fair amount and then burps, it all comes back up. Today, he vomited about 2-3 hours after breakfast, and still had food in it, so I know it is coming from down in the stomach (if that makes sense). Other than that, I'm not seeing any negative reactions to the supplements. Actually, thinking I am seeing some positives. He seems stronger, a little more verbal, and overall just in a better mood. The only other reaction I am seeing is a little more lethargic/tired. A friend who is an herbalist mentioned that that isn't uncommon if he is so deficient in B vitamins instead of making him hyper, they will calm him down since he is actually absorbing them??? Not sure I get that. Anyway, should I just stay the course and see if the reflux works itself out? Should I not increase the dose until I see the reflux stop? He is 37 lbs and I was planning on working up to two full doses at breakfast and lunch before introducing the dinner dose. Just worried about upsetting sleep and since he has sleep issues anyway, I didn't want to add to the problems. Thanks for your guidance! mom to Sam 2.6 ASD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
