Aw, Suzi, I'm sorry. Much ~ma for her, and for you all. You've had a tough weekend.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Ooh, Kathy, thanks! I read Precious Bane a few years ago at Hec's urging and loved it, and he has talked about the BBC production ever since.
Hmm. I should search YouTube and see if anyone's uploaded the BBC production of A Little Princess that's famous for being both true to the book (IIRC, it's Nilly's favorite version) and almost completely unavailable.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I hope everything goes well, for both of them.

Big ~ma for your cousin's wife, Suzi.

There is such a thing? I love that book, and have been so disappointed in the adaptations, although at least the Cuaron version has the depressive mood of the book.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Lots of ~ma, Suzi

Kathy, it's this one... I've never seen it, but a couple of years ago we were having a literary adaptations discussion, and Nilly raved about this version (I think maybe she had it on video and played it until the tape wore out) -- the handful of user reviews posted on IMDB are full of the same love (though, of course, less eloquent than Nilly's). Apparently it takes a crazy, risky, revolutionary chance and follows the plot of the book. And Sara has dark hair and is not cherubic and dimpled.
And, holy crap! Since the last time I checked a little over a year ago, it's finally come out on DVD!

Scrappy, the easiest treatment for infant reflux is to keep the baby as upright as possible for feedings, and for about half an hour afterwards. Also if possible try to feed smaller amounts more often (tricky if the baby is breastfed since you can never tell *exactly* how much they're getting.)
Their ped should also be able to recommend an antacid and give them info on dosing.

scrappy, the baby also needs to be propped up when sleeping, at least at a 30% incline.
Another thing that can help is sucking on a pacifier which increases saliva and reduces acid.
Finally refluxy babies respond poorly to tight clothing, so once you are past the swaddle stage, then loose clothes should be the key.
