Breast milk is better in this problem, don’t worry many kids have this problem during first year or till second year which goes by gradually as oesophageal (food pipe) muscle tone develops, I hope there is no other muscle tone issue. Don’t feed large amount

Dear parents,
According to me hold the baby bottle at 90degree so that only milk is sucked no air.
After feeding put the baby on left shoulder and pat just behind stomach level for 5mintues to burpe on back of the baby..
