Anyone out there have experience with a newborn with severe reflux/gerd? My 9 day old is having trouble keeping his formula down, everytime I feed him he throws it back up. I have decreased the amount of formula and feed him every hour and half to hopefully give his belly a chance to digest. Any bits of advice anyone has would be appreciated!

Oh okay cause that was happening to me with my baby but it was before I started to warm up her bottle. Now it doesn't happen anymore @jaxonsmom123

my baby is 3 months and has reflux.sitting up,burping,feeding him in intervals didnt work for us.plus,my son loves to snack..took him to the dr he prescribed first omprazole.it worked for the first 2 days and then he was back to throwing up his milk..i did research and read that sometimes it takes awhile. i asked his dr could cereal help,he said possibly.this was when he was 2 months.still havent given it to him..so i thought maybe if he had something thicker..looked for a thickener and came across Gelmix.its good for breast milk and formula and only 5 calories..i dont want a chunky baby,so im going to use this vs. the cereal..i havent purchased it yet,but going to.

@mommybump2016, I keep him sitting up for about a half hour after feedings. @aryanasmomma I am using dr brown that is supposed to be really good with controlling air and take breaks when feeding him

I would give it atleast 2 hour intervals. and try to make sure the baby isn't getting too much air from the bottle and gently burp him after. or switch formulas.
