My 3 month old is on novalac ar because his regurgitation is so bad, the novalac really helps. but i desperately want to breastfeed him & i have so much milk. at what age will this regurgitation subside and the breastmilk stop making him throw up?

GE reflux : Gastroesphageal reflux ( GE reflux) happens often in newborns, estimated at up to 80 % of babies, but seldom does it cause severe illness. ( Gastroesophageal reflux disease - GERD). It usually improves and subsides by the age of 6 months, but in some cases can last up to 12 months...

Dr Dosanjh agreed

Nursing: Continue to nurse while feeding at an angle of at least 30 degrees. Slower feeds, burping mid and after feeding is advised. If there is slowing of his growth, discuss treatment options with your pediatrician. Most infants will improve over time. Since there is improvement, medication may not be necessary at this time, but a thickening agent may be helpful.
