You can restart Vit D and should continue to give 400 IU daily till 2 year of age. Vit D will not worsen GERD and is a safe drug.

Yes, you can start Vitamin D now, no issue. A delay of few days is not harmful. Give routine dose (usually 400 IU daily). It will not worsen reflux or loose stools. Continue other treatment as advised.
