Tuesday night, Natalie finally had another symptom beside throwing up...runny diapers. I say "finally" because one week of unpredictable throwing up was really causing us to scratch our heads, since there weren't any other symptoms and she was quite happy. So this makes us think that she actually did get some kind of stomach bug. Increased reflux is what the doctor thought, since she didn't have a fever or runny diapers before. Now that we have another clue (symptom), we're praying that she will stop throwing up when the bug has run it's course.
It still doesn't completely explain the previous week, so I'm also talking to her GI doctor about increasing her reflux medication dosage (since she weighs more than the last time it was dosed). But I expect that this will just be until she is completely well, because we were actually planning to take her off one of the reflux meds because she hasn't refluxed (while healthy) in months.
