Reflux-see Dr. : If baby isn't coughing or having difficulty with feeding, he might be having reflux. Milk remains in the stomach thanks to the ge sphincter, a muscle that encircles the top of the stomach-opening when food comes down, and closing to keep the food in the stomach. If it is 'loose' milk can silently come up the 'food pipe' or esophagus. Keep baby upright in your arms 30" after feeds, and see dr.

Other causes of : nasal regurgitation are related to the palate or the muscle that moves it. Low muscle tone can cause velopalatal insufficiency. A small cleft of the soft palate or a submucus cleft, in which the muscle is separated but its coverings are not, can be missed on neonatal exam. Some healthy infants can have nasal regurgitation occasionally if they burp or spit up forcefully.
