Baby Reflux or Pyloric Stenosis? How She Discovered the Real Cause Behind Projectile Vomiting

Her baby spit up and cried constantly, no matter how often she stopped to burp him during feedings. At first, she thought it might be normal newborn reflux, but things kept getting worse. He started projectile vomiting after almost every feeding, and her gut told her something wasn’t right.

She took him to the doctor, and after some testing, he was diagnosed with Pyloric Stenosis—a condition where the muscle leading to the stomach thickens and blocks food from passing through.

At just two months old, her baby needed surgery. It was scary, but she knew it was necessary. And after the procedure, the change was immediate and dramatic. Feeding became peaceful, the vomiting stopped, and for the first time in weeks, her baby was truly comfortable.
