Here are a few suggestions for acid reflux. The position of feeding is a sitting up position. Never lay the baby on their back right after eating because the acid from the stomach goes into the esophagus and causes pain. Raise the head of their crib to a 45-degree angle too so they is not flat on their back. Feeding 5-6 times day will help. Feeding that way keeps the stomach acid constant which helps the reflux, they grow, and their weight increases at a steady pace.
