Anyone with experience dealing with Pyloric Stenosis?

My son was 2 months when he had surgery for this. He is now a very happy and active 3 year old. Don't worry everything will be okay and your son will feel so much better after he has the surgery. It was hard seeing my son wheeled back into the operating room but before you know it it was all over and the surgery went great. The only way you would ever know my son had this is the scar above his belly button. Good luck and i hope everything goes great for your family.

They by twist of destiny nicked his abdomen whilst they operated (because of the fact he grew to become into so small) and so he could no longer feed for 3 days - which grew to become into horrendous. different than that, he did look somewhat colicky for months in a while and likewise has continuously had an particularly mushy abdomen (he's now 8 and could nonetheless ***** his tummy hurts in many circumstances).

My nephew had this. When he was 5 weeks old, he wasn't wetting enough diapers so he ended up being diagnosed with this after some tests. He had a bag of fluid to rehydrate him in the hospital, then they operated on it. The incision was faily tiny as well, and healed fast. He threw up for a couple days after the surgery I remember, but within maybe 5 days or so he was able to feed like normal. Hope this helps, he's a happy healthy 14 month old now.
