I am so frustrated with my son's pediatricain office. I live in Cleveland Ohio and use doctors thru the Cleveland Clinic since they are supposed to be some of the best in the nation. I hae loved every doctor I have ever gone to thru them. My son has had quite a few stomach issues in his short 12 weeks of life, and all are being addressed in one way or another. But he is always in abdominal pain. No matter what I do or try it seems to be getting worse. Every time I call the office they give me stupid run of the mill advice I know already. Last time I called they told me some babies just need to be held more. I got so angry I threw the phone. I asked them if he is being held 24-7, he sleeps with me, how much more should I be holding him? I do not need to be patronized. I am his mother and I know when something is wrong. I don't care if this is my first baby or my 15th, they should not treat me like this. I am not a quiet person and know how to speak my mind so I just left a sort of nasty message for the doctor. I am ready to change doctors but I like the Clinic and they already know his history, so I would still like to give them one more chance to redeem themselves. Has anyone else had these issues with your doc? What did you or what would you do in my situation? I cannot be convinced that a 12 week old should be in so much abdominal discomfort that he is unable to settle all night long and wakes in crying fits all night every night and is in pain during the day as well. I know the difference between fussy and pain. I have had hives worrying about this!
