Newborn grunting?

acid reflux treatment
Toadsputum asked:


My daughter is almost 1 month old. When she is asleep she grunts really loud. Her face gets all red and she stretches out her muscles. The grunting is continuous through the night and enough to keep me awake. I have told the doctor. He seemed unconcerned and said so long as she is just turning red and not blue it is fine. This is my first child and I have little experience with children and nothing to compare her to. Is this loud grunting something that is normal or should I get a second opinion? I have done some research on the internet and found out that there is a disorder called “grunting baby syndrome.” Have you known anyone dx with GBS? If so, what was the treatment? Something else that I saw was acid reflux. Any info on newborn acid reflux?
Baby has regular bowel movements that are of appropriate color and consistency. She rarely spits-up.

    If she is havinf normal bowl movements and isnt spitting up or this is not bothering her i would think your ok. If something bothered her she would let you know with a cry. good luck first time parenting can be rough, i am going through it myself!
