Not sure the best place to post this. Any ideas for crib wedges/other items that will help my 5m ds sleep with his acid reflux? I have a crib wedge to put in the crib, but it doesn't elevate very much. I have to admit, he sleeps best (supervised) propped up on a very firm pillow, but I know I can't do that in his crib.

Have you tried raising one side of the crib to creat a bit of an elevated end? Works well when kids have nasal congestion. It might help with reflux too.

We raise our sons mattress by rolling up large beach towels and placing them under the mattress to elevate it. It helps when he is really congested and needs to sleep more upright.

tuckersling.com - it was a lifesaver for us when our son had reflux. You can buy the wedge at any medical supply place and make the sling yourself if you're crafty
