Your baby seems to be suffering from recurrent acute otitis media which is a common type of middle ear infection. Most common cause is eustachian tube dysfunction which is common in babies. You need to feed your baby in upright position so that milk does not enter ear
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
