Silent reflux
My 1 month old baby has silent reflux and gas. Can using katori and spoon instead of directly breast feeding reduce air intake. Please suggest me so that she gets sound sleep. Even after elevating her bed she doesn't have sound sleep. She vomits rarely. Gets extremely uncomfortable with stuck burp even after half hour of burping in upright position. She sleeps with fully upright but wakes up when kept down either flat or on elevated bed. Can side sleep position help her. If yes which side. When does this problem subside. She cries after feeding sometimes and once her burp is out she cooks down. Again she she cries for burp. Her burp is not so easy to take out even after half an hour. Please help with above questions.

Hello.. First of all.. I would like to assure you that it is not a very serious problem and can be managed with few changes and a bit more patience. Acid reflex is a common problem in newborns. Burping is a very important step and it has to be done the right way my applying pressure over the back.
Next Steps
Burping is a very important step and it has to be done the right way my applying pressure over the back. It has to be done after every feed. I have a few questions 1. Do u make the baby burp after every feeds?? 2.Does your baby have noisy breathing or mouth breathing when lying down. note: side sleep position is very dangerous. so please avoid it.
