My girls haven’t thrown up in their beds for awhile, but you put me right back there. Uh, thanks.

Poor Meredith. Both my girls had GERD as babies, and both seemed to outgrow, but I had one have a “recurrence” in third grade in much the way you describe. Also a lot of anxiety around that time, so we weren’t sure the cause of it’s return. We let the scrip run out this year, and so far, so good – knock on wood – but I keep fretting that any blueberries on the bed type action is a return.

Stoopid GERD. I have it, their dad has it, their grandma and great-grandma have it. We’re a family full of folks who are a bit weak in the guts department, it seems.

I wonder, have you ever tried breathing out of your nose the entire time you are trying to clean up ? Just a suggestion.

Good luck with it all.

Do not lose your function brain cells (and I have very few) to Stendhal Syndrome.
