Dr. Amrita Dosanjh answered

Specializes in Pediatric Allergy and Asthma

Reflux measures : Feed the baby in an upright position, burp mid and after feeding. A formula thickener such as rice cereal may be used to treat reflux. Please review the symptoms and growth during a virtual consultation or with your pediatrician. Watch for signs of dehydration, such as dry diapers and fewer diaper changes,
