Dr. Brian Bezack answered

Specializes in Pediatrics - Pulmonology

How long?: Has this only been happening since the ear infection and antibiotics? If so, may be upset stomach from antibiotics. If this had been going on longer, reflux is a possibility. Either way you should discuss this with your child's doctor.
