GI specialist: A child at 18 mo does not typically "just" have gerd. It's possible but generally there is something else going on, either inflammation, mild obstruction due to either esophageal or intestinal obstruction. There could be chronic constipation too. If it were truly gerd, there would be more symptoms involved. I'd have a gastroenterologist check him out.
