Acid Reflux in newborn
My baby 3weeks, is exclusivly breastfed and will sometimes start gagging about a hour after eating. Anyone else experience this and if so did you do anything to help it?

Re: Acid Reflux in newborn
gagging as in spitting up?
first step... take her to the ped to see what they diagnose her with.
My DD was diagnosed w/reflux at 2 weeks, and her ped didn't want to do the medicine route.
In lieu of that... he told me to put a half tsp of rice cereal in her bottle to every ounce of milk that she was drinking....
so if she was drinking a 2oz bottle, she was getting a full teaspoon of rice cereal.
go talk to her ped though, and see what steps he/she wants to take!
Good luck!

i breastfed dd for six months, and for the first few months she had acid reflux. make sure to always burp your dc and keep him/her upright for half an hour after nursing.
