A member asked:
What kind if formula is best to use if your baby has gerd until i can make my an appointment for my baby to see a gi?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several : There are several different formulas designed just for babies with reflux. One is enfamil ar and another is similac rs. Both of these have rice starch that when the formula hits the acidity of the stomach, moderately gels the formula, making it harder to spit up. Also, feed smaller amounts more often, keep baby upright after feeds for 30 minutes, burp frequently and sleep on back at slight recline.
